Hi Jorge,

That's a very astute observation. The answer is indeed both. The plan for WildFly is to have 6-9 month cycles and include the latest tech. So 9 will come much quicker than EE8 which is probably another 2-3 years away.

We have a laundry list of major-level feature requests in jira that were on the backburner due to EE7, so this is a great opportunity to make a dent them.

Is there any special feature planned that deserve the jump to 9.x (ex. pre-Java EE 8 support, major rewrite or
b
leeding edge technology)
or just a jump into the wagon of rapid release cycle
like Firefox, Chrome and others?
