Connect IQ SDK with Java 9?

Just installed x64 JDK 9.0.4 and Eclipse 4.7.2 on a new Win10 laptop. Eclipse works fine until I follow the instructions at https://developer.garmin.com/connect-iq/sdk/ to install the SDK, and attempting to add https://developer.garmin.com/downloads/connect-iq/eclipse/ as a software site results in nothing happening for several minutes and then a timeout message "HTTP Server 'Gateway Timeout': https://developer.garmin.com/downloads/connect-iq/eclipse/content.xml HttpComponents connection error response code 504."

I tried a couple of times about 24 hours apart, with the same error each time.

    Hey AuldNik,

    I've been digging into this and trying to reproduce it. I'm running a Windows 10 laptop on the latest Windows update. I've used your setup exactly as far as Eclipse versions and JDK. I'm not seeing the same thing. Have you been able to add any other software? Does eclipse let you try to "check for updates" with anything else? Is it possible that the interaction is being caught by a firewall? I tried changing from HTTPS to HTTP to see if that would get in the way, but it looks like we have the handled on our end. I've checked the link you've provided and I don't see any issues there.

    Any more information would be helpful.

    Thanks,
