I don't think it's necessary to say "As of JDK 9" since the annotation itself 
has since="9" in it.

The text seems like it's missing something. It's true there is no direct 
replacement for the Applet API. But somebody looking to migrate an Applet to 
something else will be left hanging. The JEP 289 text says,

> Guide developers to alternative technologies such as Java Web Start or 
> installable applications.

I'd suggest that a couple sentences be added to the java.applet package 
documentation saying that the APIs in this package are all deprecated and to 
suggest, per the JEP, migrating to Java Web Start or to an installable 
application. Links would also be good as appropriate. It needn't be a big 
essay; a couple sentences should be sufficient.

Then, each class can simply refer to the package doc:

    * @deprecated The Applet API is deprecated. See the
    * <a href="package-summary.html>java.applet package documentation</a>
    * for further information.
