Hi Freeman

By the way, what is status of your Java 9 branch, I understand it was really about using Java 9 to compile and load CXF 3.2.x ? If so then may be it can be merged to 3.2.x ?

Cheers, Sergey

If next CXF major release(3.3 or 4.0) are not going to support JDK8 anymore, 
it’s about the time to create master branch which is for Java9(and the 
successor JDK version which is not very far away). And this also would be easy 
for us to adjust CXF to use the jigsaw module eventually, like to add 
module-info.java  to see how is it going on there.

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
