svn commit: r521562 - in head/java: . wildfly17 wildfly17/files

[Simeo Reig]

Hi all,

  Pedro´s question could make sense in a regular environment but this is
Java world!. Still nowadays there are not so few companies running java
7/java EE7 despite we have java 13/Jakarta EE8.

In official Wildfly page, https://wildfly.org/downloads , you can see there
is still available from Wildfly 8 since the last Wildfly 18 more, summing
more  than twenty versions all maintained.


Why? some versions are javaEE7 certified, some javaEE8 and some others
jakartaEE8. Some can use jdk7, some jdk8 and others can use last jdk11.
Some have microprofile included, some other no etcetera. Java EE has moved
from oracle to eclipse fundation, there have been more changes in last two
years than last twenty and therefore many companies are stilln adapting
their code.

By the way, thanks for your comments Pedro and commit new version Kurt.
