The discussions were brief. There is no timeline, since there is no 
decision made by
Sun to do it - I'm looking at your idea on my own in order to figure out how
(and when) to make a good case for it.

Changing anything regarding the JCP is a massive, politically 
challenging process -
assuming I'd be able to make a convincing case for that in the first 
place (not a given at all,
looking at the amount of  work it would potentially take to do what you 
want for about a 
dozen of already released JSRs).

cheers,
