+Long overdue, we turn our Java to 11.
+
+Reflecting the management's best estimates as to implementation most
+easily available to the potential \textsc{ABCL} 1.6 User, the
+implementation for this edition works best with Java 8 or Java 11
+runtimes.  Since freely available implementations of jdk6 and jdk7
+exist, we still strive to maintain compatibility with the Java 6 and
+Java 7 runtime environments but those environments are less tested.
+The User may need to use the facilities of the ABCL-BUILD contrib to
+recompile the implementation locally in more exotic runtimes.
