> Target Java 11 on the main branch. That is, drop support for building or running with Java 8 [/9/10] from future releases (e.g 2.20.0).
> An existing release stream (e.g. from 2.18.0 as of report, 2.19.0 soon) could be used for continued Java 8 support where needed and occasional release for important fixes for a further period of time.
> This was initially proposed by Clebert ahead of 2.17.0 and discussed on the mailing list ~7 months ago (Jan 2021) in the following thread:
>  [https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/re59ba50c9d148d278e88d435f57f5cd4b4b69802138eb962b548ec48%40%3Cdev.activemq.apache.org%3E]
> I will prod the thread with note of this JIRA and a related PR I will raise shortly.
>  
> (Related note for later reference: Java 17 RC1 is out, -RC2 is due later this week-, and final release is due in just under a month)
