Hi, |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
As a maintainer of most jdks in gentoo I'm not looking at adding even more JDK |
| 13 |
versions this time as there is little to no reason of doing that. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
adoptopenjdk is open, lts, managed by community and not corporate entity, |
| 16 |
gaining more attention lately. it supports arches amazon doesn't. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
the only valuable feature of corretto I can think of is presence of javafx.*, |
| 19 |
but openjdk:8 and openjdk-bin:8 will soon have it as well and we already have |
| 20 |
it for openjdk:11 |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
if there is significant performance or technical difference I could take a |
| 23 |
look at it, so let me know if I'm wrong in my assessment. |
