Description

Currently our Jenkins jobs by default only run on JDK8 with Linux.
I would propose to change the default (mentioned in https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SLING/Sling+module+descriptor#Slingmoduledescriptor-DefaultValues) to

• Build with JDK 11 and 17 on
• Windows and Linux

Although this might break some builds, I think it is time now to make all modules compatible with it once we touch it for whatever reason.
