Paul Benedict commented on MNG-5904:
------------------------------------
With OpenJDK, they have a JDK-1 build policy. That is that JDK 9, for example,
must be able to be compiled with JDK 8. If you plan on bootstrapping Maven with
Maven, I think some sort of policy needs to be define. Perhaps it's based on
minor version, for example: 3.4 requires that any 3.3.x Maven must be able to
build it. WDYT?
> Remove the whole Ant Build
