Something about "This lets the release run on the Java SE 21 platform"
seems just a little bit awkward to me.
Would it be accurate to say something like:
- The chief feature of Derby 10.17.1.0 is the removal of calls to
deprecated Java APIs. Derby 10.17.1.0 has been built and tested on the
Java SE 21 platform, and will run only on Java SE 21 and newer Java
platforms. Derby 10.17.1.0 cannot be used with older Java platforms.
Please see http://db.apache.org/derby/derby_downloads.html for more
details regarding which Derby releases are compatible with which Java
platforms.
thanks,
