I just learned that Oracle Java 11 removes
Java WebStart. Standalone JForex API and JForex
need WebStart. Does this mean we will need
to use OpenJDK ? Here is a link discussing this
"great removal"

Thanks for your question.

In near future we don't plan move to Java 11. There is a few options for java 8 further usage:

1)Oracle commercial JDK(https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html)
2)AdoptOpenJDK (https://adoptopenjdk.net/)
3)Amazon Corretto (https://aws.amazon.com/corretto/)

All of them will provide java 8 support.

As with many others, I would like an assurance
that the standalone API is "not going away"...

I suspect Java11 + javaws.jar (from Java8 JDK) should work, i.e. JForex3 Platform may run this way. Not sure if JForex developers will try this.
