Hi Robert & Kristian,
JDK 9 with Project Jigsaw Early Access build b83 is available for
download at jdk9.java.net/jigsaw <http://jdk9.java.net/jigsaw>.
Notable changes:
* The -Xoverride option has been extended and renamed to -Xpatch, and
the -XaddReads option has been restored [1] (changesets
04dd0430530e, 095fc622bf01).
* ClassLoader::getPackage now works as it did previously, walking the
class-loader hierarchy in order to find Package objects, which
enables NetBeans to start up [2] (5805781b9370).
* Class::getResource will now return a URL to a resource in a module,
when invoked from code within that module (0fbe4c72638a).
* The big module-summary table has been improved, and will now be
posted with each build [3] (e922b207c170).
