Hi Rick,
Early Access b113 <https://jdk9.java.net/download/> for JDK 9 is
available on java.net, summary of changes are listed here
<http://download.java.net/java/jdk9/changes/jdk-9+113.html>.
Early Access b113 <https://jdk9.java.net/jigsaw/> (#4664) for JDK 9
with Project Jigsaw is available on java.net.
* The important change in this build is that root modules when
compiling code in the unnamed module, or when running and the
main class is loaded from the class path, do not include the EE
modules. More on this in JEP 261.
* The other change in this build is that the -Xpatch option is now
aligned with what we have documented in JEP 261, support for the
old form has been removed.
We are very interested in hearing your experiences in testing any
Early Access builds. Have you have begun testing against
JDK 9 and or JDK 9 with Project Jigsaw EA builds, have you uncovered
showstopper issues that you would like to discuss?
We would really like to hear your findings so far, either reply to me
or via the mailing lists [1], [2].
Rgds,Rory

Hi Rory,
I have taken both JDK's for a spin. With both JDKs, a JDK9-ready
version of Derby builds and tests cleanly as discussed in the trailing
comments here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6856.
Note that this version of Derby does not exercise any new features
(including jigsaw) which are introduced by these JDKs.
Thanks,
-Rick
