The javadoc comments in public API are a requirement in OpenJDK and can not be removed. This is the OpenJDK project policy. If you want to extend OpenJDK you have to add the comments. And not only comments. New public API may be added to OpenJDK only after passing the special process called CSR:

https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/csr/Main

So if your schedule doesn't allow you to add comments, I would not venture into adding new public API to OpenJDK as it is much more work than just adding comments...
