Hi Robert,

Unfortunately we had to revert that patch. I did not realize until after I
merged it that it was pulling in Oracle JDK and not OpenJDK. We are
required to use OpenJDK on our systems. I'm working on some new
provisioning scripts to streamline our provisioning a bit more and have a
patch here [0] which pulls in Java 9 Early Access on CentOS 7 machines.
Until CentOS provides us with an official Java 9 package or we find a
better source to get a newer one I hope this will at least get us closer to
Java 9 support.

I'm working on getting these newer images into production soon so more on
this soon.

Regards,
Thanh
