Thank you for bringing it up!

We will handle the tuning of jdk8 and jdk11 rpms. Also we will do an initial testing if it does what
it should.
Once it is done, mass rebuild is launched. we will then see. But it will be in on individual package
owners to fix theirs packages.
We will definitely help where necessary or where needed, and will most likely gather the most common
cases, but to push to not-owned repos... only in critical cases.
Of course we can reconsider, but it is not on powers of few (5?) individuals to fix 2500 packages,
even if it will be only two or three most common cases.
As for the runtime part, it is another story. There again we will do everything necessary to fix the
problems both usptream and downstream, but the runtime casaes will flow up only in later stages of
lifecycle of f33. Possibly even after f33 release. Note, that if there is serious runtime issues,
then it would be really poorly written usptream application or very outdated downstream, not broken
migration. Still the help will be attempted to be provided.

Sure. If I did, then not intentionally. By jira ticket in the above I had in mind general ticket on
pagure or similarly. The word jira did not belonged here. fixed the doc.
