remove reactivestreams dependency?

Open pjfanning opened this issue 4 months ago • 2 comments

  • My understanding is that reactivestreams dependency is only really needed to support Java 8 users
  • Java 9+ users can use https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/docs/api/java/util/concurrent/Flow.html and related classes
  • In theory, users who use Java 9+ might still want org.reactivestreams support too but is it best to just move on?

wdyt? @raboof @He-Pin @mdedetrich

That seems reasonable for a 2.0.x to me, yes

reactor-core is still using reactive-stream api, I think we should keep it.
