--- Comment #2 from Andrew Smith <iamasmith.home at gmail.com> ---
Whilst the update to jruby 9K is appreciated, one should note the major
architectural changes between 1.7.x and 9K.

jruby.org explicitly maintains to distributions, perhaps maybe not for too
long, however, for anybody running prod code they may definitely want to stay
on the 1.7.x codebase and take the incremental changes before jumping across to
9K because it uses a lot more native code and potentially introduces
regressions that need to be tested out on an individual basis over a period.

I recommend, if possible, make a 1.7 and 9K separate port if you are keen to
bringing 9K to ports.
