Re: [eclipse.org-planning-council] Meeting this Wednesday

I'm not sure the current of being able to run with Java 9, let alone supporting its features well in JDT:


  https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=493761


I assume this must be fixed in a general way that works regardless of whether Java 9 is actually used or not and regardless of the JVM implementation provider.  Is it hopeful that this will be addressed in time that we may all test the state of Java 9? 


Does it really make sense to plan the whole release schedule around this assumption?  And as Marc suggests, is planning a release during the high vacation season a good plan?

Considering the dates are so close between Oxygen.0 and Java 9,

I think having an extra release is more hassle for adopters than it is worth.

So waiting for Java 9 is a good plan for Oxygen.0.


One drawback I see is that more people will be on vacation at that time,

but with proper planning, it should not be a problem.

+1 for moving the Oxygen.0 release to the JDK9 release date.
Would make things for adopters of that release easier, too.

Cheers,

> Note that I've added a biggie to the list: with all the talk about having an extra release to coincide with the Java 9 release, we've neglected to ask why we need a release in both June and July. The Java 9 release date (which by all accounts is pretty stable) is about a month after our planned Oxygen date. Is there any reason why we shouldn't just move the Oxygen.0 date (other than "we've always done it that way") ?
