JDK 11
Handy General OPEN JDK Queries aka top-level requirement
Distilled from the above, specific bugs are listed below:
JDK 10
Query used is this; Generic JEP query is this. (Yes, we may get a JDK 10, 11, etc., after all: Proposal from jdk-dev list) For each Java X (10,11 etc) - add an additional weeks effort for pde related (3d) and misc sanity (2d).
Investigate Java 10 features and the possible support from JDT Core Top Level Bug.
