You're shooting the messenger here.  Andreas doesn't work for Oracle.
Oracle retired the license and Andreas had no control over that nor when
it would happen.  There was obviously no way to plan for it in the
roadmap when the license got changed only recently.

Granted, it does cause some problems for people.  And we should address
it and try to find what works and what doesn't.  But that doesn't change
the fact that the old Oracle Java is now proprietary and ties our hands
in being able to use it.
