But Andrew, even Oracle has it with fixVersion = 11.0.10-oracle
which is January. Take pity on us! Only six days before release,
and all the builds must be tested and vetted and --
otherwise, as A. Shipilev rightly says,

artifacts "may contain horrible bugs that could lead to data corruption, engulfing machines in flames,
selling your firstborns at eBay, etc."
