--- Comment #3 from ari at ish.com.au ---
The Oracle JDK11 release notes specific mention that there is no longer a JRE
build. And java.com still points users to the Java8 JRE. Which is all a bit
odd, but I've long since stopped trying to understand what Oracle's plan is.

Although they are a bit hidden on their website, adoptopenJDK are distributing
JRE builds:

https://adoptopenjdk.net/archive.html?variant=openjdk11&jvmVariant=hotspot

Does that make it any easier to offer a FreeBSD port? I understand it might
just be a nuisance to maintain, but with battleblow now merged back to
adoptopenJDK is all this a bit simpler?
