+1 to start planning 9.0. Since you mentioned the Gradle build, I believe that we still need to migrate some of the release tooling from Ant to Gradle, e.g. dev-tools/scripts/addBackcompatIndexes.py. These scripts are not easy to test without actually doing a release so the 9.0 RM might have some debugging to do.
