Is graal VM going to be part of a future JDK release?

[Anthony Vanelverdinghe]

Hi Thomas

Will the next OTN release also contain a version for Windows x64 please? 
I just noticed in Chris' message [1] that there are actually already 
Windows builds available (though not for the latest version) at 
http://lafo.ssw.uni-linz.ac.at/builds.

Kind regards,
Anthony
