Re: [Jython-users] Plans for Jython 2.7 on Java 11 / JDK 11 ?

[Jeff A. <ja...@fa...>]

The difficult step is to Java 9, which does not smoothly run Jython 
because of changes under Project Jigsaw. We consider this essential for 
2.7.2, but a few regressions are still to be dealt with.

On a quick check, I only get the same failures for Java 11 that I get 
for Java 9, so although aiming for 9 I'd be surprised to find 2.7.2 will 
not run on 11. Now you will ask for dates and I will find it difficult 
to give any worth the ink.
