Hi Rory has been pinging me as contact for Ant on new JDK builds and I've been testing the latest JDK9 builds and providing feedback for Ant. So we can as well formalize this. :-)
Please add Apache Ant using myself as contact and d...@ant.apache.org as mailing list address. It's unlikely I'll find time to give new Java8 builds a thorough testing but Java9 has managed to crawl up on my priority list for Ant. Cheers Stefan
