Much of the description of Jshell is in the future tense. Can someone give us an idea of the state of progress?

@Elrac : You can get the shell running if you have linux or mac. Yesterday, I tried on windows but couldn't get it working yet. Instructions are here : http://www.jclarity.com/2015/04/15/java-9-repl-getting-start...

JDK stands for JDK Enhancement Proposal. You can get an idea about of the progress from the linked issue tracker entry.
