Pull request overview
Adds an Oracle JDK 17 licensing caveat to the action’s README to help users understand why a floating java-version: '17' may not be appropriate for Oracle JDK, and to guide them toward pinning/upgrade options.
Changes:
- Document Oracle JDK 17 license differences by patch level (NFTC vs OTN).
- Recommend pinning Oracle JDK 17 to an NFTC-covered patch version (or upgrading to 21+).
