- sokoloff 8y agoThe Amazon release promises support out to that date. There's fairly good business reason to think that, if OpenJDK continues to be popular and relevant (as I expect it will be), that Amazon will continue to extend that date, keeping it roughly four to five years in the future each time. They're giving confidence in the long-term support of Java on their platform, not making an indefinite promise about the future.
- setquk 8y agoAlso to note James Gosling works at Amazon since May '17. They clearly have a vested interest in Java.
