We can not ship uncerified JDK. Sooner or later a swarm of lawyers would appear.
So could it be shipped instead as a icedtea?
The reason I am asking is that I think we need to look seriously at the alternatives and see how much work the community is going to need to do.
1. Fedora no longer ships a trademarked 'coffee-themed language'. Instead it adds an external repository where your team is able to focus on what they can deliver.
2. Fedora no longer ships a trademarked 'coffee-themed language'. Instead, a volunteer driven SIG puts in an icedtea back into into Fedora instead.
3. Fedora no longer ships a trademarked 'coffee-themed language'. Instead people wanting it will need to find an external place which builds it.
4. Fedora ships a trademarked 'coffee-themed language' that is static. However this doesn't decrease the workload enough and we need to move to 1-3 in 2 to 3 years.

From point of view of JDK, the jdk will remain working. From point of JDK and generric java world the jdk will be even better.
From view of distributions standarts it will become weird misshape. Serving it purpose in build root well, serving as system or distribution jdk well. But yeah... all was said on this toppic already:(

I wish it is so simple. Please see my reply to Kevin when I enumerated, that we can not keep "jsut latest" lts.
