Coroutines in JDK8++?

Hi,

I've last updated the coro patch beginning of December, and people have 
been compiling and using it at least mid-February.
It is quite experimental, but it's complete enough to prove the 
usefulness of coroutines on a JVM.

One important step towards coroutines on Java is a JSR, I guess...
There's a mailing list hosted on one of our university servers for the 
purpose of discussing coroutine/continuation JSR proposals, but there 
hasn't been much traffic lately (partly because of lack of time and 
responsiveness on my side, I fear...).
https://www.ssw.uni-linz.ac.at/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/co_jsr

How does the Adopt OpenJDK program interact with JSRs? It may be a good 
time to start discussing a coroutine JSR again...

Cheers,
  Lukas
