Cool, thanks for the perspective.

The main difference from just an initial look is that the Amazon release
is officially "Java SE compatible" as it passes the TCK certification.
AdoptOpenJDK evidentally has some issue with oracle (a problem with
oracle 8-/? Imagine that) such that they aren't able to use the TCK for
testing.

Then from an applications view, one of our most important java apps is
the shibboleth idp, which officially supports amazon's release but not
the adoptopenjdk one. They do support Redhat's OpenJDK build for RHEL and
CentOS, I assume the adoptopenjdk built will work too but just adds an
additional fuzzy if opening a support ticket.

Thanks again...
