Hi,

I can't seem to find a definitive answer to this question. As I understand it, OpenJDK will continue to provide security patches for Java 8 until December 2030 (https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/#java8).

How long will Debian continue to provide a build of openjdk-8? And how long will Debian continue to apply security patches to openjdk-8?

Thanks

James.
