next derby release
It's been a year since we produced a Derby release. No significant
feature work has gone into the code since then. But I would be happy to
manage a 10.15.2 maintenance release in order to roll up the handful of
bug fixes which have accumulated over the last year.
The only reason I can see for a new feature release would be to advance
the minimal JVM version to the Java 11 LTS version. According to
convention, this would require a vote by the community. I am not
planning any work over the next year which would require Java 11
features, so I don't personally see any compelling reason for advancing
the JVM version.
What are your thoughts?
Thanks,
-Rick

+1 to a 10.15.2 maintenance release.
I have no particular opinion about Java 9 versus Java 11 (in many of
my environments I am still using Java 8/Derby 10.14 quite
successfully, in fact.)

10.15.3-SNAPSHOT in development with Java 11 (or whatever is the next
development name)
?
