[10u-communication] Oracle's plans to contribute to JDK Updates Project in OpenJDK after Java SE 10 End of Public Updates

[dalibor topic]

Hi,

Oracle has updated the Oracle Java SE Support Roadmap with a Java SE 10
End of Public Updates Notice. [0]

Oracle doesn't plan to contribute further changes to JDK 10 Updates in 
this OpenJDK Project once updates of Java SE 10 are no longer being 
posted to its public download site, after September 2018. Instead, 
Oracle plans to initiate and contribute to the development JDK 11 
Updates within this OpenJDK Project in due course.

That makes the July 2018 Critical Patch Update (CPU), 10.0.2, the last 
planned [1] Oracle-led JDK 10 Update release to be developed within this 
OpenJDK Project.

Users of JDK 10 Updates builds should consider upgrading to JDK 11 when 
it becomes generally available.

As with JDK 6 and JDK 7 Updates Projects in the past, if a suitable 
party steps forward to maintain the JDK 10 Updates series further once 
the final Oracle-led JDK 10 Update release has been published, we will 
discuss how to best enable such a transition on this Project's mailing list.

cheers,
