There is of coursethe https://adoptopenjdk.net/project, but there is little activity immediately obvious on porting there [1]. While Java 8 will be quite satisfactory for a while, the longer Java advances without BSD patches the harder it will be to bring across all the good work done for Java 8 on FreeBSD. Are there plans for the Foundation to sponsor some work in this area? I'm guessing its pretty substantial.
