Mickael,
I'm not sure the Java-centric packages are a great target. For real Java development most people will want an SDK I imagine. E.g., a src.zip seems important and not present in a JRE, at least as generated by default by jlink...
Yes we can communicate more broadly. An article in the newsletter is forthcoming too.
One of my most significant remaining concerns is the update
channel for new versions of the JRE. I'm not sure we should be
putting the JREs in the release train repository, for example...
Regards,
Ed
Thanks Ed, that looks very good.We can target that some EPP (and even maybe all of them?) starts including those artifacts from JustJ soon after 2020-03 is released. Anyone willing to work on it soon can use the Rust or _javascript_ packages as guinea pigs, as those packages are going to ship a JRE eventually.
We could already start more communication about it, eg. by tweeting about it, as I'm aware of many RCP developers who would love to leverage this work ASAP. Do you think it's OK to tweet about it now to reach a wider audience, or do you think it's better to wait a bit?
Cheers,
