The Future of Java SE
summary
Java SE moves to six‑month feature releases with an LTS every three years, and JDK 11 achieves Oracle JDK/OpenJDK parity; TLS 1.3 lands within weeks of its RFC. New workflows include jdeps and jdeprscan to spot breakage, jlink for custom runtimes, incubator modules for early APIs and preview flags to exercise language/VM changes, and active projects (Portola, Valhalla/Mahala, Panama, Loom, Amber) delivering incremental features rather than one big, risky release.
