JDK 10: Late-Enhancement Request Process (original) (raw)

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-requestto 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 labeljdk10-enhancement-yes.
• Reject the request by adding the labeljdk10-enhancement-no, along with a comment describing the reason for this action.
• Request more information by adding the labeljdk10-enhancement-nmi ("nmi" = "needs more information"), along with a comment describing what information is requested.
• In any case, do not remove thejdk10-enhancement-request label.

JBS query for pending requests: http://j.mp/jdk-enhancement-pending

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-nmi label 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.
