There has ever been an EOL for older JDKs. But sometimes You're bound to a specific JDK version in Your working environment, so IMO always replacing is a bad strategy. The problem is, in larger companies it sometimes takes some weeks or even months until some software is allowed to be upgraded. And I'd at least want to check which features are available in which JDK - or which bugs are present.

Well, tell the OpenJDK/Oracle people, they are the ones who came up with this release cycle. It has nothing to do with Arch Linux.
