Hello Márk,
Thanks for your proposal.
It is in scope to do that I think.
Regarding Java 9/10/11, for now we want to support Java 8 for some long
period + upper Java versions, so any work must not break the compatibility.
Regarding Maven, our issue is lack of time and the high customization in
JMeter build, but any improvement is welcome.
Finally, Github is the mirror of svn but you can propose PR without problem:
- https://github.com/apache/jmeter/blob/trunk/CONTRIBUTING.md
Regards
