hi,

Posting this for my colleague James Tang who is the Product Manager for IBM 
Java on Z:

Java 11 on z/OS is a work in progress.  The Statement of Direction is still 
valid - 
https://www-01.ibm.com/common/ssi/ShowDoc.wss?docURL=/common/ssi/rep_ca/8/897/ENUS220-008/index.html&request_locale=en

Hope this helps.
