| After a new Project Lead was not identified and several months of inactivity, the Project was dissolved Apr 2023. Discussion about reinstating a JDK 7 Updates Project may be held on discuss. |
Preamble
It would be nice if there was a way for OpenJDK 7u Authors, Committers and Reviewers to flag critical fixes that have been integrated into jdk7u-dev for consideration by the Oracle JDK 7u CPU Release Team for inclusion into a CPU release ahead of the release being worked on in jdk7u-dev.
Such a process can be facilitated if one follows the rules outlined below.
Rule 0
An OpenJDK 7u Author, Committer or Reviewer requesting their fix in jdk7u-dev to be considered by the Oracle JDK CPU Release Team for CPU integration SHOULD label the corresponding issue with CPU-critical-request in the JDK Bug System.
Rule 1
If (and only if) approved by the Oracle JDK 7u CPU Release Team the label will be updated to CPU-critical-approved.
They will then ensure that the approved fix gets integrated to an upcoming Oracle JDK 7u CPU release.
All relevant updates will be processed via the bug report.
Rule 2
Such bug fix requests should only be made for critical fixes. A guideline is
- P1 bug, or
- A serious regression which needs fixing ASAP
