Keeping [2] up-to-date is automated but uses brittle HTML source parsing to grab the download URIs for various JDK versions and projects. It would be more stable if it was updated only on changes/uploads to java.net -- and also hosted there.

Hi Christian, I like your idea -- I think it makes sense to publish some kind of machine readable manifest of available binary releases on jdk.java.net. I'll discuss with my colleagues at Oracle to see if it is possible to implement with a reasonable amount of effort. /Magnus > > Cheers, > Christian > > [0]: > https://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/web-discuss/2018-May/000533.html > > [1]: https://twitter.com/sormuras/status/1357536058662084608 > > [2]: > https://github.com/sormuras/bach/blob/master/install-jdk.properties > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This would be a great addition to jdk.java.net ! Projects such as Christian's Bach, Foojay's Disco API [2], and my Java Metadata collection [3] would benefit greatly of a proper description of available OpenJDK downloads. It would also be great to get historical information and not only the very latest releases in a machine readable format.
