Hi Sergey,

I'm in favor of the idea.  One thing worth noting is that Java 9 is a very
limited support release.  According to Oracle's support strategy [1], Java
9 will only be supported until March 2018, then they will be releasing Java
10 (aka 18.3) which also will have a short shelf-life.  The next long-term
support release is 18.9 which releases in September.  We'll probably want
the new Java 9 master branch to work with 18.3 as well, then maybe consider
a new master branch for 18.9 some time next year. What do you think?

Thanks,
Andy
