| [jetty-dev] JDK 23 is GA, JDK 24 EA builds. |
|
Welcome to the latest OpenJDK Quality Outreach update. JDK 23 was released last month as planned. You can find "The Arrival of Java 23" announcement here [1], and some additional Java 23 materials in the "Topics of Interest" section at
the bottom of this update. You can also rewatch the Java 23 launch stream here [2]. Thank you to all the projects who contributed to this release by testing the early-access builds and by providing feedback and or identifying issues. Through your participation
in this program, you are helping to shape the Java platform! Let's now shift our attention to JDK 24 which will enter the Rampdown Phase in less than 6 weeks on December 5th [3]. [1]

These builds enable JavaFX application developers to build and test their applications with JavaFX 24 on JDK 24. Although these builds are designed to work with
JDK 24-ea, they are also known to work with JDK 22 and later versions. The latest early access builds of JavaFX 24 Builds 14 (2024/10/18) are available [7], under the GNU General Public License, version 2, with the Classpath Exception. JavaFX 24 API Javadocs [8] are available too. [7] https://jdk.java.net/javafx24/ [8]
