Hi Guix,
there are a few packages now that require Java 9, such as
java-eclipse-jdt-compiler-apt (that I’m currently packaging).
We should aim to use openjdk9 as the default JDK.
What do you think?

sounds good, but that will give us a lot of work.
I'd like to suggest upgrading to java 11 instead, and build
packages that don't support it with the -source argument.
I've got some packages locally that require -source 1.6 and
one that requires -source 1.4. I do it in this way currently:
(add-before 'build 'use-1.4
(lambda _
(substitute* "build.xml"
(("<javac") "<javac source=\"1.4\""))))
The build.xml is generated from the ant-build-system, so maybe
we could add a #:source-version key to do just that? Doing it
this way prevents some warning (and sometimes errors) that
appear when using an older compiler on a package with dependencies
that were build with a newer compiler.
I think our update to the latest openjdk would be a lot smoother
with this. What do you think?

Do you think that aiming for openjdk11 directly is too much?
9 is not supported, but 11 will be supported until 2026.

Good point. Let’s use openjdk11 then.

From this page <https://icedtea.classpath.org/wiki/Main_Page>, the
latest icedtea is for openjdk 8. Does this mean that we have to patch
icedtea to build openjdk 11?

As of openjdk9 openjdk became free, so there is no longer a need for
icetea. That is why there is no newer version, and you can find openjdk 9
10 and 11 in guix.

We already have packages for later JDKs.
