How that will play out in reality ... I don't know. Whether Oracle will contribute to that repo for 8 after it's EOL and 11 after the 6 month cycle ... we will see. Most Linux distributions promised(?) long-term support for Java 11 in their LTS releases (e.g. Ubuntu 18.04). I am not sure what that exactly means ... whether they will actively provide patches to OpenJDK or whether they just build from source. >> >> But considering that, I think it's definitely worth to at least keep an eye on Java 12 and 13 - even if those are just EA.
