Historical note:

During the JDK6 timeframe, most of the javadoc warnings in the core jdk were fixed. Finding maintainers for review is usually harder than the actual fixing. OpenJDK has upstream projects as well.

Yes, that's why I narrowed it down to the jdk repo ;)

Will work also be done on the existing Javadoc comments in the JDK sources? I've noticed some warnings as docs are built with OpenJDK at the moment, and presumably there are more issues that aren't being flagged.
