Colin, My concern is that a lot of time is spent on re-writing RPC, XML UI-binding. Given how short-handed the maintainers are, should we not focus on just one thing - 2.9 with basic compiler support for Java 11 jdk? I don't even advocate for porting any new core Java 9+ JDK APIs. ... Even worse: downstream projects, such as Errai won't move to Java 11 unless there is an official GWT release for it.
