I agree with this but think we probably want to ask in the community and check some client applications and see what they require as JDK. I would think that most, if not all maintained applications require 11 or even newer .. probably 17.

@martint @mosabua did we land on the conclusion?

[mosabua]

Not yet .. but I am working on a survey for the end of year blog post.

[mosabua]

We discussed this some more and also added a question to the user survey in https://trino.io/blog/2025/01/07/2024-and-beyond

Here are the results for the client library question

As a result we can conclude that we are definitely safe to upgrade to Java 11 as requirement as implemented in this PR. Over 90% have no issues with the upgrade and the rest of the users can continue to use older drivers until they can upgrade.

In terms of merging I suggest we release Trino 469 and merge this PR afterwards.

Looks good. Lets ship with 470. Also see my comment for further data.
