Is there a port or package somewhere in testing which I can use for early evaluation of Java 8? I'd like to set up some java 8 environments on our test server. All I found was:

http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.openjdk.hotspot.devel/7697

but no real followup since 2012. With the final Java 8 release in a week or two I'd like to get a headstart on my customers for ensuring there isn't going to be a problem.
