Re: [eclipse-pmc] [cross-project-issues-dev] Proposed schedule for JDK 9

The licenses haven't changed. This means as with Java 8, we will provide feature patches that can be installed on top of 4.5.x.

I'm less worried about *running* Eclipse on Java 9 than I am about
supporting *developing* Java 9 apps *with* Eclipse.

Any plans on avoiding the issue we had with Java 8 support not being
available in Eclipse until actual Java 8 GA date ?

Other IDE's already has some basic support for developing with Java 9.
