Hi Rory,
I will reconfigure the Jenkins server to use those new builds (or better I will rename the folders of the RC build, so it’s handled as the final build). I will also enable 16-EA builds, I had no time to do this yet. One question about the features: Is Shenanndoah included or not (in Oracle builds)? The list of features mentions it, but Oracle always excluded it from their builds.
