Hi Stefan,
Early Access build for JDK 9 b27 <https://jdk9.java.net/download/> is
available on java.net, summary of changes here
<http://www.java.net/download/jdk9/changes/jdk9-b27.html>
I'd also like to use this opportunity to point you to ongoing work in
OpenJDK on Project Jigsaw.
- JDK 9's source code is now modular:

- Mark Reinhold's post providing some context is available on his
blog: http://mreinhold.org/blog/jigsaw-phase-two
- The first two Project Jigsaw JEPs have been posted at
http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/200 & http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/201 .
You can also track the progress on the JEPs in the JDK Bug System now -
the corresponding JBS issue for JEP 201 is
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8051619 , for example.
Comments, questions, and suggestions are welcome on the jigsaw-dev
