Q: What is the relationship between a CSR and a JEP?
A: A JEP (JDK Enhancement-Proposal) initially describes a project to update some aspect of the JDK. The exact details of the updates are usually not yet known when the JEP begins. Before a JEP is advanced to the Candidate state, it is strongly recommended the CSRs of a JEP go through at least the first phase of CSR review to Provisional state. Before a JEP is advanced to the Proposed to Target state, CSRs associated with the JEP must have advanced through to at least the CSR Provisional state. For Proposed to Target, the CSRs covering the work of a JEP may also go fully through the CSR process to the Approved state rather than the Provisional state. As the JEP matures, the updates to the JDK associated with the JEP are pushed under on more one or more changesets. Each changeset that involves a specification change (or sufficiently large compatibility impact) would also require CSR review, just as done for other changes to the JDK.
