[openj9-dev] Documenting OpenJ9 support for OpenJDK releases...

["Mark Stoodley" <mstoodle@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I wanted to highlight the following issue
I opened last night:
        https://github.com/eclipse/openj9/issues/1616: What JDK releases are "supported" by OpenJ9?

Its purpose it so capture community
discussion on how Eclipse OpenJ9 should describe our support for various
OpenJDK release levels (JDK8 and forward). In this new world of OpenJDK
releases every 6 months combined with our own intentions for at least quarterly
"multi-JDK" releases, I think it's important for our community
to express a clear position on what problem reports we'll consider supporting
and how any fixes will be provided.

Please take a few moments to read through
this issue and provide your feedback. Thanks in advance!

Committers: please note that
I will be asking you to explicitly vote to support this statement once
any discussion tapers off, so if you have any concerns with the text please
voice them in the issue now.
