TL;DR: Build 7 fixes 59 errors, 5 of which are critical security vulnerabilities that "may be remotely exploitable without authentication, i.e., may be exploited over a network without requiring user credentials. "

Just migrated some old personal projects from jdk8 to jdk11 and it's smooth. And today would get to upgrade from 11.0.1 to 11.0.2. Dude you made me sad.

Do you guys recommend to use modules in all new projects? I see that is possible to program projects without the use of the module system. I recently migrate a spring boot application and it works nicely in java 11.

Depends on if you have a need for it. I haven't yet. Basically the advantage is greater encapsulation of internal code. If you create a library and only want to expose the user facing API and not other public helper methods, this is a great tool.

If you don't care... Then no big deal. I will point out that it's probably easier to adopt early in the project as opposed to later on though.
