Is this the place to ask informal questions about progress and efforts within Valhalla?

No, as you've been informed before. Such questions belong on valhalla-dev. Please don't reply to valhalla-spec-observers.

What gains in the area of value types have been made? Rill those acomplishments be included in Java 11?

See the valhalla-dev archives - there is a lot of activity with values types:

Also see:

What gains are being made in the area of enhancements for Java numerics, pertaining to the areas of type concordance, non-floating point arithmetic types, arithmetic operator, true arbitrary precision arithmetic, algebraic functions support?

None that I'm aware of.
