Looks like Hive isn't quite done migrating to Java 11: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-22415
I'm not sure whether that's still a problem, but we currently don't build Hive 3 support unless we're using Java 8. That makes me think that dropping JDK 8 support would probably also make it a lot more difficult for Hive to do releases based on Iceberg. Even with some of the integration moving into the Hive project, if we started shipping JDK 11 Jars then Hive would no longer be able to update.
