Cannot execute Maven goal to build Tapestry 5.4.x from Getting started guide nor from the example source using Maven

Hi community,

nearly a decade ago I was involved in a project that was based on Apache
Tapestry. It was great for an Java Web beginner to start with.
After all this years, I want to go back to my roots and re-try or
re-evaluate Tapestry again.

## Problem

Sad to say, that I was not able to get Tapestry with the current Getting
started or Hotel Booking examples running on my machine.

## Versions

Java version: 1.8.0_191
Apache Maven version: 3.6.0
Operating system: Windows 10 (1903)

## Errors

### Getting started:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archetype-plugin:3.0.1:generate
(default-cli) on project standalone-pom: org

.apache.maven.archetype.exception.ArchetypeGenerationFailure: Error merging
velocity templates: Lexical error,   Encountered: "\ufffd" (65
                                                    533), after : "" at
archetype-resources/src/main/webapp/mybootstrap/fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot[line
16, column 21] -> [Help 1]

### Hotel booking example

[ERROR]
/C:/Users/tobia/IdeaProjects/tapestry5-hotel-booking/src/main/java/com/tap5/hotelbooking/services/BasicAuthenticator.java:[87,13]
try-with-resources is not supported in -source 1.5

Thanks for all your helpful tips! It's great to see that this project is
still alive!

Kind regards from Germany,

I agreed to get rid of Tapestry. It seems death soon. I recommend to use
jhipster.com which would help you to generate any thing to build a robust
web app.
