Your ideas are 100% aligned with mine. For ant, sed-like approach may be enough. To make it in simialr way as are %pom_remove_artifact or friens, may be enough. For jdk17, they will need to grow from 8 to 11 I'm afraid. Correct, overwriting is is necessary to e allowed. Thanx a lot for shsring the ideas.
