It seems that question has been answered in the link Dalibor sent : its
"openjdk7u"
for the release.
Yes, this makes totally sense, however the bug was closed as won't fix.

I know I'm failing from my side in adjusting to this new work flow so
please indulge me, but I would expect the bug to be still open and just
move from 7-pool to openjdk7u.

There is a workflow - one that I think is over-used - of creating backports and closing them as "not an issue", or "will not fix", as a way of making it clear that "we didn't just forget about this release, we made a decision documented here".
Sometimes they are created and closed like that all in the blink of an eye.
That's not exactly what happened here, since I think there may have been an
intent to fix that was rescinded, but probably it could be considered to document
that better by its presence than its absence.


Or will a new backport be createad with openjdk7u as target release?

* If you pushed to the new openjdk 7 without doing anything, then a new backport will
be automatically created when you push
* If you create a new one manually, assign to yourself, target it to openjdk7, then that one
will get marked fixed when you push
* Or, you could re-open the existing one, target it to openjdk7u (and assign to yourself) and it will be marked fixed when you push. However I think the workflow I documented
above will then be messed up.
