Hello,

We're interested in using the JDK 9 builds for Alpine Linux.  We see that the currently-available builds are early-access, and are a little behind the GA release (e.g., they don't include support for the --add-opens option).

http://jdk.java.net/9/ea

We were wondering what the roadmap is for the Alpine Linux builds.  Is there a plan to move from early-access to GA builds?  Will GA builds be regularly supported for musl C, the same as are supported for glibc?  We could, of course, build our own, but it would be advantageous if we could use the same builds that "everyone else" is using.

Chris
