Thanks Rob,

Here are some suggestions for http://openjdk.java.net/projects/jdk-updates/

These links don't work for me: [All Requests] [All Approvals]

I suggest creating a Dashboard for these - the JSR Review Dashboard works well - https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/secure/Dashboard.jspa?selectPageId=17313

I suggest we stop using the word "forest" since it's only got one "tree" these days and switch to "repo" instead.

Given the level of demand for getting fixes into the jdk11u train the maintainers have decided to redefine the approval criteria to the following:

"Any reasonable fix which contributes to the stability, security or performance of the affected line should be considered." I should note that fixes which meet the new criteria are not guaranteed approval but we certainly intend to approve more changes than we did under initial criteria with which the JDK Updates Project was set up. As a result of the change I've approved all pending requests. If you have an outstanding jdk11u-fix-request please check it for the jdk11u- fix-yes label and then proceed with your push to the jdk11u forest. [1] I have updated the project page to reflect the new changes.
