Derby gets advance notice of new Open JDK distributions, so we have been 
struggling with this change since the beginning of the week. Our 
experience is being tracked by the Derby developer email thread 
https://apache-database.10148.n7.nabble.com/JDK-17-is-now-in-Rampdown-Phase-One-td151971.html, 
by the email thread titled "blizzard of deprecation warnings related to 
JEP 411" on the security-dev@openjdk.java.net mailing list, and by the 
last several comments on https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-7110.

For us, this is a significant disruption, which we haven't sorted out 
satisfactorily yet.
