Quick status update: I have 2 outstanding integration test failures
<https://travis-ci.org/apache/arrow/builds/524723636?utm_source=github_status&utm_medium=notification>that
need to be addressed -- was out for a couple of days and then got dragged
into another issue. Looking into the failures now. I hope people have
looked at my previous email for the change I had made to get the jdk >= 9
builds passing.
