RE: Java 9? CHACHA20 ciphers?

So when will Java 11 ship? That's still up in the air. "We don't have concrete days right now when Java 11 is coming," says Jesse Gorzinski, the IBM i architect for open source. Part of Gorzinski's job is shepherding new releases of Java onto the platform, and he has his work cut out for him these days.

My WAG would be iNext and 7.3, and maybe 7.2 as well.

No. IBM has stated that they will only be issuing the LTS releases.
That is every 3rd version starting with 8. So 11 will be the next
version on IBM i followed by 14.

Ok. But assuming that Tomcat will even run under Java 11 (I hear it breaks an awful lot of stuff), what OS release is that going to involve?
