JMC out of date #1222

Open jglick opened 11 months ago

jglick commented 11 months ago

The jmc package seems rather out of date—as of this writing, 8.1.1 from Zulu and 8.0.0 from Adoptium. 8.3.0 was GA in 2022-11, and these versions date from 2021-11 and even 2021-02. Compare https://www.azul.com/products/components/azul-mission-control/ which advertises 8.3.1 and https://adoptium.net/jmc/ which advertises 8.3.0. If neither of these vendors is currently pushing updates to SDKMAN! then it would be better to pull the package to avoid confusion.

Hi @jglick, I totally agree that we should probably remove JMC alltogether. For one, it's not an SDK so we rely on a lot of hacks to install it on SDKMAN. Secondly, Azul have not been publishing their latest versions via the vendor API.

I'll follow up with Azul about their intent, but perhaps it might be time to pull the plug on JMC.
