JDK 10 Late-Enhancement Request Process
This process applies from Rampdown Phase One until the end of the release.
Requesting approval for a late enhancement
If you wish to integrate an enhancement after Rampdown Phase One
begins then you can request approval as follows: Update the JBS
issue to add a comment whose first line is "Late Enhancement
Request". In that comment describe the risk level, a brief
justification, and your best estimate of the date by which you'll
integrate it. Add the label jdk10-enhancement-request
to the issue.
Reviewing enhancement requests
The JDK Project Lead or a delegate, in case of absence, will review pending enhancement requests on a regular basis, several times per week. They will take one of the following actions:
-
Approve the request by adding the label
jdk10-enhancement-yes. -
Reject the request by adding the label
jdk10-enhancement-no, along with a comment describing the reason for this action. -
Request more information by adding the label
jdk10-enhancement-nmi("nmi" = "needs more information"), along with a comment describing what information is requested. -
In any case, do not remove the
jdk10-enhancement-requestlabel.

Responding to actions taken on your request
-
If you're asked to provide more information for an enhancement request then please do so in a new comment in the issue, and then remove the
jdk10-enhancement-nmilabel so that we see that it's ready for re-review. -
If your request is approved then update the issue's due date to the expected completion date.
