Hi, Alan and Rachel.
Here's a proposal for the new text for JEP 223:
---
[ insert between existing sections "@since..." and "Mercurial..."]
JNI Version
The [JNI Specification][JNISpec] defines a constant representing the JNI version number.
The constant will drop the initial "1" and truncate trailing zeros. Thus, for
JDK 9, the constant will be 'JNI_VERSION_9'.
[JNISpec]:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/jni/spec/functions.html#version_information

What bugid should be used for this CCC request? What is the procedure for
updating the JNI Spec itself?
This wording looks okay to me and I assume it could go on to say that
the constant will also be proposed for Java SE 9. JDK-8145098 is the
issue that is being used to update the JNI version.
While we're at it, could I interest you in a 2-for-1 deal where JEP 223
also captures the update to the JVM TI version? We've added
JVMTI_VERSION_9 in the jake forest and it would be nice to get agreement
on aligning the JVM TI version number (and also get it into JDK 9 in
advance of the module system).
