Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Xtext 2.29.0.M2 will require Kava 11, support Java 17 and Source and Target (and thus will no longer support Java 8)

With so less man power left in Xtext the project can't afford support for ancient Java / Eclipse releases anymore.
I really appreciate your work Christian!

Kind regards,
