800 KLOC deleted, wonderful!
The update to technology-summary.html page means its html title no
longer matches the contents. We should probably change it to "JCP
Technologies in JDK 11" for now.
The removal of test cases from the tests in tools/launcher/modules
removes most of the test coverage for the upgrade module path. We'll
need to replace these sub-tests. Can you create an issue to track that?
Everything else looks good and it's okay to track residual issues with
other JIRA issues. I think the important thing is to get this monster
patch into JDK builds soon so that libraries and the eco system can
start to adjust.
