Project proposal: JDK 8

[mark.reinhold at oracle.com]

Per the interim governance guidelines for Projects [1] I hereby propose
the creation of a new Project, JDK 8.  The primary goal of this Project
will be to produce an open-source reference implementation of the Java
SE 8 Platform, to be defined by JSR 337 [2].

I propose that this Project be sponsored by the Build Group [3] and that
I serve as the initial Moderator.

- Mark
