It's very obvious that that milestone schedule page is not kept up to date.
I downloaded and installed this M8 milestone, and after some very brief tests, it doesn't look feature complete. I can't get the new lambda/closure syntax to compile (int i1 = #()(3).();). Also, jsr-310 isn't included. I am most excited about Jigsaw, although I don't know enough to test that out. Stuff from older builds looks great: fork/join framework, NIO.2 stuff, and Project Coin features. I would imagine that the jdk7 schedule has slipped and they just aren't communicating that at the moment.
