This release comprises a coincidental publish of the first Eclipse Temurin binaries.
The binaries will be based upon OpenJDK 8u code level tagged as "jdk8u292-ga". That is the April 21, 2021 GA code level.
Supported platforms will be MacOS 64-bit Intel, Windows 64-bit Intel, and Linux 64-bit Intel.
The project leadership certifies that the APIs in this release are "Eclipse Quality".
The Temurin code has been updated and refreshed changed to produce binaries from the Eclipse Foundation. While the code and delivery process has been successful in the project before moving to the Foundation, it will be the first time a release has been done since the code was updated to reflect the Temurin project. We will be in a position to check that the results of this release behave the same way as the binaries produced at AdoptOpenJDK.
No known unresolved security issues were identified.
The Adoptium website is still in a basic form, but has the essentials in place for a successful delivery of these binaries.
As an initial release of the project, with functionality already available from AdoptOpenJDK, we do not expect a significant user, marketing and promotion impact from this work. The next release later in July will be more significant.
The binaries will have full usability criteria met, including all the usual Java SE capabilities, plus administrator tools to install and track the binaries in their environment.
Not applicable for this initial release.
Compliant to the Java SE 8 specification.
This release is work of a diverse community of people working well together at Adoptium and Temurin.
The project has restructed into a Working Group and technical projects with functional PMCs. The community primarily interact through Slack chat conversations and Github issues/documents.
There are a number of engagements with student and inclusive programs, including Outreachy.

This was the earliest date the tool would let me schedule a release review, but we would prefer it earlier.
