Introducing the `oracle-actions/setup-java` GitHub action
There's also actions that hit the jdk website using a HEAD request https://github.com/oracle-actions/setup-java/... I don't know why this is necessary AT ALL.

Java 20 looks like it may be one of the biggest updates in years
There are plenty of vendors providing builds of OpenJDK free to use in production including Oracle themselves. Oracle's build of OpenJDK that is free to use in production is found here: https://jdk.java.net.

Is Java8 still free for commercial use? I haven't done any Java work in a long time. I was under the impression that lots of people were still using java8 because it was exempt from the commercial licensing of later versions. If you're paying for Java, is there any reason not to upgrade to 17?
As someone else has mentioned, Oracle JDK still has limitations when used in commercial applications. However, there are lots of JDKs that are free to use for anything you want to do with it. jdk.java.net is where I used to get mine from. If you want an installer adoptium.net is also great (that's the JDK provided by the Eclipse foundation).

What's with the multiple different versions of Java/OpenJDK, and why does java.com link to Java 8?
Java.com is the website for the product Java. Oracle owns java as mentioned in 1 so it makes sense they would have java-related things on their website. jdk.java.net is the domain for the Oracle OpenJDK

Marketing email about Java licensing? We are a .net shop with only 2 third party apps built on Java for part of our business. We get a patch from the vendor and apply it. That’s all our java patching. Anything I actually need to worry about?
This, the oracle JDK from oracle.com.. Not the Oracle build of the JDK from http://jdk.java.net/ which has always been free.

OpenJDK vs Oracle JDK?
https://jdk.java.net/ is probably the most standard as those are the build from openjdk itself. The eclipse temurn is a different Openjdk build by a different organization.

Amazon Corretto, Microsoft Build of OpenJDK, Red Hat Build, IBM Semeru, Oracle, or something else?
OpenJDK is an open-source project. The key word there is 'source'. OpenJDK does not provide binary distributions. Yes, there is one available from jdk.java.net but that is the Oracle OpenJDK JDK.
- JRE & JDK implementation mess
- Java is the best
