Re-targeting to 14. Also want to double-check a few projects that may still be using these APIs to make sure they have a plan in place to migrate away from these APIs if necessary.

Apache CXF also has dependencies on java.security.acl. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-7815 (which has been resolved).

Re-targeting the removal to JDK 13. Although I believe usage of these APIs should be very rare, I would like to give the community more time to prepare for the removal, given that these were initially deprecated in JDK 9 and marked for removal in JDK 10. With the 6 month release cadence, the extra time will give us a higher level of confidence, especially as more developers and projects upgrade to JDK 11.

Re-targeting the removal of these APIs from JDK 11 to JDK 12. These APIs were initially deprecated in JDK 9 and marked for removal in JDK 10. Given the new 6 month release cadence, it may be too aggressive to deprecate and remove an API in 1 year. See also https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-7024 for more info/progress on one project that is impacted by this removal.
