Summary

Updates this repository’s README.md to follow the same structure and tone as the modernized percussioncms README, adapted for percussioncms-java8:

  • Clear product positioning and Intersoft maintenance story
  • Status table for 8.1.7 / 8.1.x Java 8 vs 8.2 Java 21 (other repo)
  • Badges (License, Java 8, Latest Release, Dependency Submission on main)
  • Commercial support / docs / customer download pointers
  • Concise but accurate JDK 8 build (mvn-env.sh / JAVA_HOME_8), install, and run steps
  • Key modules table and contributing pointers (CONTRIBUTING.md, AGENTS.md)
  • Related-repositories section linking the two official trees

Removes outdated “development-8.1.x branch of percussioncms” framing in favor of this dedicated Java 8 LTS repository on main.

Test plan

  • README renders cleanly as GitHub Markdown
  • Links target intersoftdatalabs-in/percussioncms-java8 releases/actions where appropriate
  • Build instructions match AGENTS.md (mvn-env.sh, JDK 8)

Co-Authored by Grok Build 1.0.3 using grok-4.5 with agent main.

Rewrite the repository README in the same structure as the modernized
percussioncms README: product positioning, status table, commercial
support, badges, and clearer build/install guidance — adapted for this
dedicated Java 8 LTS repo (main branch, JDK 1.8, cross-link to the
Java 21 / 8.2 tree).
