We use Nashorn heavily in our Edge at Riot for what we call our transformation layer, where users wanting to expose their applications can tranforms request and/or responses by writing JS snippets. Losing Nashorn without any viable replacement would destroy much of the work we've done in the past year and a half to make our Ecosystem highly configurable, so an at the very least actual ETA on deprecation and an expected replacement path would be ideal.
