The JDK bug system (JBS) hosted at http://bugs.openjdk.java.netorg/ is a JIRA instance which provides bug tracking for Projects in the OpenJDK Community. A large fraction of the bugs are associated with a JDK Release Project, such as JDK 8, and are resolved by changes to the source code for such a Project.
...
At the time of launch, self-service account creation is not supported. Users without an account can browse JBS anonymously or use bugreport.java.com to view a time-delayed and simplified snapshot of bug state. Users without an account can also use bugreport.java.com to submit an issue. When such an issue is submitted, a record is created in the Java Incidents (JI) project in JBS; at the time of launch, the JI project is not publicly visible. Issues in the JI project have an identifier like JI-9XXXXXX, where the numeric portion corresponds to the bug identifier sent back to the submitter. After an initial triage process, if the incidents needs further review, it can be transferred to be an issue in the JDK project. When such a transfer occurs, the issue gets a new identifier in the JDK project (JDK-8YYYYYY) but references to the original JI-9XXXXXX number will be redirected.
...
An OpenJDK Project may request that a JBS project be created to host its bugs by sending an email to ops@openjdk.java.netorg. In many cases, an existing JBS project should be used rather than creating a new JBS project. For example, a new JDK release would use the existing "JDK" project in JBS rather than creating a new project.
