Yes, now would be a good time.  With the changes in upstream jdk8u
operation, we don't have the same issue with a big backlog after the CPU.

I intend to start weekly merges with upstream once the first build for
8u222 goes into jdk8u on Wednesday. That should keep merges down to
smaller, manageable chunks. I guess Aleksey may want to do something
similar with 11u.

Incidentally, i've CCed the Shenandoah list on this mail as they seem to
have been missed in the original post.

Thanks,
