Oracle heeft al weer even geleden versie 11.0.2 van Java Standard Edition uitgebracht, die ook het label LTS heeft meegekregen. Vanaf deze versie brengt Oracle alleen nog maar de Java SE Development Kit (JDK) uit, in zowel de Oracle JDK- als OpenJDK-smaak, waarbij de laatste onder de gpl-licentie wordt aangeboden. Er worden geen Java Runtime Environment (JRE) en Server Java Runtime Environment (Server JRE) meer uitgebracht. Wel is het mogelijk om met

een kleinere runtime samen te stellen. Ook heeft Oracle Java 8 update 202 en 201 uitgebracht. De releasenotes van deze versies zien er als volgt uit:
