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.
...
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.
