-----------------------------------------------------------

Note that there are various levels of "support" to be discussed here, including:

- ability to simply run the devstudio installer with JDK 9
- support devsuite installing JDK 9 on Windows/OSX
- support running Eclipse/devstudio with JDK 9 via installer / update site install
- support deploying projects to a JDK 9 runtime environment via Eclipse/devstudio
- support building projects w/ JDK 9 (which requires Maven 3.5.2 and potentially a new version of Tycho >= 1.1.0-SNAPSHOT)

(Edit: No new RPMs will be produced for 12.x, so we no longer have to support that install use case.)

> When 11.1 will be out, Java9 will also be out. The installer refuses to accept Java9 JVM when JBDS is installed. Shouldn't we accept them now ?
