title: Pentaho Kettle Java 11 Roadmap
body: <p>Currently Pentaho Kettle (v.9.1) officially only support Java 8. This is a problem for us, since we are maintaining a plugin that needs Java 11 because of a essential library that needs Java 11. Does anyone have details on the roadmap for the migration to Java 11. I could only find some older information that Java 11 is on the roadmap, but not when it will be available for Kettle.</p>
  <p>Our current solution is to use Java 11. You can get Spoon running when removing the JAVA_ENDORSED_DIRS from the bat/sh file. But this is not the best solution since the application is not fully compatible and we are experiencing more and more problems.</p>
  <p>Also alternative ideas or solutions are welcome.</p>
