What's the progress of Project Galahad?

[Glavo]

Hi Douglas,

What I care about is what the Project Galahad homepage says:

> Galahad's primary goal is to contribute Java-related GraalVM technologies
to the OpenJDK Community and prepare them for possible incubation in a JDK
main-line release.

Does this mean that Graal will become part of the JDK mainline in the
future?

I also saw a JEP draft for Project Leyden:
https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8313278
Reintroducing graal into OpenJDK also seems to be a prerequisite for it.
So I am very concerned about this matter. Can you tell me more details?
