Hi Rory,

All tests are green on our side with JDK 9 EA b174 and JDK 8u152 b04 !

P.S. I'm eagerly waiting for June's module system implementation refresh - https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8181087 and RC1 in general.

Thank you for the notification and excuse me for delay with reply.

We had some difficulties to run Maven on JDK 9 builds after 175 ( https://github.com/jacoco/jacoco/pull/558 ), but now we're back on track. And all tests are green for JDK 9 up to latest b177.

Also I played more deeply with modules and with jar manifest attribute "Automatic-Module-Name": as far as I can see, jar-files loaded as Java agents via "-javaagent" are never considered to be modules, even if they have manifest attribute and/or "module-info.class". This was also observed by Rafael Winterhalter in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42403069/java-9-jigsaw-support-for-javaagent/42424221 We have an interesting use-case for which in modular case might be valuable to be able to open access to classes of Java agent via "--add-reads". So I'm wondering about this story in general (was it discussed somewhere already?) and in particular if this is something that will/might be addressed before GA?

Regards,
Evgeny
