Hi Andrus

Thanks for the answer 

Well, migration is a topic on its own, which I didn't intend to cover here, only to know whether such a move would be needed. And if so, btw, what about the WebObject part ? Any migration plan for it ?

But before having to go this far : would we be able to "patch/fix at minima" EOF and WebObjects ? Can we access/modify the sources ? I guess not but I'm looking for a confirmation.

WO in its binary form miraculously survived Java evolution for so many years. Not knowing the details of Java 9, I can't say what the next workaround will be, but I know there will be one :)

But seriously, you should probably start looking at Apache Cayenne or other alternatives. You may check my presentations from WOWODC last year on what it takes to get there (TL;DR - no silver bullet, but a reasonable migration path).
