Description
I just installed JDK 9 EA build 155, the most current build, and according to the control panel the version is "out of date" and has an expiration date of "Jul 9, 2013"

I thought the expiration date for EA builds was set to 2 week after they were created.  Not sure if that rule has changed, it could also be the same expiration date as the current CPU -as it contains those same fixes- in any case, the expiration date for the current JDK 9 EA build should not be in 2013.

Also would be good to have a full year in the control panel.  See attached image.

I figured it out, it absolutely has to do with localization settings on the system. In System Preferences, click "Language & Region", click "Advanced" in the lower right corner. In the advanced dialog, click "Dates". Set the short date format to "(2017)/(1)/(5)", or YYYY/M/D, then click OK Now open JCP and it will show the wrong expiration date. That means this is not related to JDK-8174779, but just how the dates and times are formatted.

Possibly relates to JDK-8174779.

Dev and SQE are unable to reproduce this issue, and impact is expected to be very low.

I wiped my deployment dir and installed the same version, it looks correct (not like above). I noticed the formatting is different, what locale are you using?
