Hi Henri,
I don't know of any "official" policy here. The projects adding new
features to JDK are gradually moving to the new build system in
anticipation of it becoming the default for JDK8 "real soon now". This
is true for lambda, and I think Jigsaw (even though no longer targeted
to JDK8). Also the new SE Profile work (JEP 161) is only being developed
in the new build system (and for limited platforms).

Hi to all,
Yesterday I detected a build failure on latest Lambda trunk and send a
mail about problem to lambda-dev list.
Mike replied that problem is in old build system not updated to new
changes and lambda team is now using new build system.
I didn't recall seeing an official announce about deprecation of old
build system for jdk8's projects.
What's the official position of jdk8 and related projects about build system ?
Should we use new build system right now or did old (standard) build
system is still the reference, supported and preferred build system ?
Cheers
