To incorporate any fix it's necessary to have an SCA (Source Contributor Agreement) in place. I am unsure of the status of things with IBM joining OpenJDK and whether there's a blanket SCA for all IBM contributions in place yet. Additionally confirmation would be needed that you are an IBM employee (mail from an IBM domain) and authorized to contribute to OpenJDK. Contact me directly if you need assistance sorting out the contributing rights. > I'm new to OpenJDK - though not to Java SE implementation development > - so hope that this is correct mailing list to ask for the code to be > reviewed.

In this case the patch appears to have arrived intact. There is always some risk of mangling by the mail list software or intermediate mail agents and clients which is generally why patches are included as attachments. Mike
