Re: [eclipse.org-planning-council] JDK 9 release moves to Sept / time to

["Daniel Megert" <daniel_megert@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Something to discuss tomorrow.

I think upstream projects would at least
need 2 week to consume the change.

JDK 9 release moves to Sept / time        to
ratify Oxygen.1 schedule!

As you may have seen [0], the July 27 date for JDK 9 GA
and Oxygen.1 / JDK 9 Update release has most likely changed to September
21, a slip of 8 weeks.

[0] http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/jdk9-dev/2017-May/005864.html

This means that we no longer need to do a July release,
and can simply include the JDK 9 stuff in the September Oxygen.1 update
[1]. 

[1] https://wiki.eclipse.org/Oxygen/Simultaneous_Release_Plan

If there are no objections by EOD today to the proposed
new JDK 9 dates [0] and the new JDK 9 GA date becomes Sept 21, can we therefore
ratify the currently proposed dates for the Oxygen.1 September release
(GA Wed Sept 27)? 

Or do we want to shift that release back by one week so
we can synchronize with the JDK 9 release date of Thurs Sept 21?

Note that the wiki schedule and planning council's Google Calendar [2]
don't have actual dates yet, other than Sept 2017, but these dates Fred
proposed back in February [3] look reasonable.

[3] https://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/eclipse.org-planning-council/msg02690.html

Can we get them entered into the wiki and the calendar after tomorrow's planning call? (I will help if required - just need to know they're official, not tentative.)

Cheers,

Nick
