Previous discussion on whether or not to remove support for javac -source/-target-/--release from JDK 11 settled instead on removing that functionality from JDK 12 [1]. That removal has now been pushed to jdk/jdk. [2] A small related enchantment shows the set of supported -source and -target alternatives in javac's -help output. This is a spell-ing error, right :) No magic in the change, but I do think it is a helpful one :-) -Joe

This seems appropriate:
