Does anyone really have an idea of what is going to happen to the Java platform after the eventual release of Java 9?

It seems that most of the public road maps from Oracle have been largely vaporware, or at least significantly delayed. It feels like the major platform innovations like JigSaw, G1GC, etc. have all been released _years_ after they were proposed. Now with the JEE 8 delays - is Oracle making different plans now that the Google lawsuit didn't go their way?

    I don't work with Java in my daily stack, but I'd love to see Oracle drop their parents and put the whole damned thing up on Github.

    The frustrating part: there seems to be a lot of great engineering work left to be done that is either on the slow walk, or being left to die on the vine.

    The JSR process seems to have also devolved into a shitshow.
