Today, I tried google-searching for "LinkedList se 9" which sent me to http://download.java.net/jdk9/docs/api/java/util/LinkedList.html?is-external=true which gives me 404. That's an improvement on the stale +104 docs, and should prod Google's engine into learning about better docs, but it may still take a while. Redirection could be improved. I tried "binging" "LinkedList se 9" and it gave me the same result.
Like I always say, populate the final jdk 9 docs directory from the very first EA build!
