Hi Cris,
        For what it's worth, I am not a big fan of these frequent releases of 
Java by Oracle.  One can barely get one's head around Java version 'X' then 
Java version 'Y' is out...

Subject: [OT] Oracle Java 11 discussion?

Hi Folks

What has anyone been thinking about the upcoming Oracle Java 11 release / 
support stuff?  Frankly,  I'm confused by it all and am still trying to wrap my 
brain around it.  I have concerns about the potential implications for my 
little project, and also wonder about Tomcat at large.

No JRE - huh?  How do we run Java apps w/o a Java runtime?  Wouldn't installing 
a JDK in production be kind of a security issue?  I can imagine security 
departments not being thrilled about that.  Does Tomcat support being run on an 
OpenJRE?

Are there any implications for Tomcat?

I am imagining spending all my time being taken up by Java upgrades with 
subsequent builds, regression testing, red tape, and deployments, without 
delivering any actual new value to our customer.  :-\
