+== AspectJ 1.8.11
+
+_© Copyright 2017 Contributors. All rights reserved._
+
+_Release info: 1.8.11 available 26-Sep-2017_
+
+This release is a small compatibility release to improve the behaviour
+of the AspectJ 1.8 line on JDK9. Importantly it includes a change that
+knows about the Java 9 version information and so does not get confused
+and think it is running on something really old (which typically
+manifests as it complaining about annotations not being supported on
+this level of Java).
+
+With that change this release is usable for Spring AOP use cases because
+that is doing runtime pointcut matching with proxy creation rather than
+actual weaving. Although if you using Spring AOP with class level
+annotation retention there may still be issues. If you experience
+problems or need to do actual weaving on JDK9, please use AspectJ9
+instead.
