Today I tried the latest jdk9 Build 113 and tried to compile my project with the latest Maven 3.3.9
These are the commands (found partially via twitter)
Here is the answer from one Maven PMC member (me):
No, it is not. Robert Scholte is working on it. Jigsaw and other stuff introduced a lot of changes. There is no official timeframe where full compat (Maven + official plugins) will be given.
The issue you see is actually not Maven but Plexus Archiver. Refer to their GitHub page. If you think you can add value, contact maven-dev mailing list.
