As David mentioned in another mail, he is hoping to push the profiles work to jdk8/build next week. One update that is needed to the configuration is the changes to take account of ThreeTen (java.time.**). This includes taking into account the ThreeTen updates for M7 that remove the old time zone data (lib/zi), a change that is currently en route from jdk8/tl to master so it will be in before the profiles push. The webrev with the changes (trivial) is here:
