Hi Lance,

Thank you for your quick reply. I am just in the middle of sorting out the OCA 
with my company now.
Once that is done I will propose my fix.
Would you prefer that I send my proposed fix to this thread for discussion 
before putting up a PR?

Cheers,
Sholto Bolton

Hi Sholto,

If you have a fix you would like to provide, please refer to 
https://openjdk.org/guide/#i-found-an-issue-in-jbs-that-i-want-to-fix in the 
OpenJDK developers guide.  One of the first steps is signing the OCA, the 
Oracle Contributor Agreement.  Once that is completed and approved, feel free 
to propose a fix.  You will also want to update 
open/test/jdk/java/sql/testng/test/sql/DateTests.java  and 
open/test/jdk/java/sql/testng/test/sql/TimestampTests.java to validate your 
change which would be provided as part of your proposed PR

Best
Lance

Hello all,

I am just reaching out to ask about the status of the issue 
JDK-8272194<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://bugs.java/bugdatabase/JDK-8272194.__;!!ACWV5N9M2RV99hQ!PfwaAm0YA0fsPF3Rt57ycSrQQa42jDtd29tw7t8acqcVU5vrJWY9dFvNnqDjdqGZfFddb6wLj0GbI6KTVM83lQ$>
 (as well as the related bug 
JDK-8272194<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://bugs.java/bugdatabase/JDK-8272194__;!!ACWV5N9M2RV99hQ!PfwaAm0YA0fsPF3Rt57ycSrQQa42jDtd29tw7t8acqcVU5vrJWY9dFvNnqDjdqGZfFddb6wLj0GbI6LVCe_E4Q$>)

I have been dealing with this issue for over a year now, and finally decided to 
look into fixing it. I believe I have found the solution to it, however I see 
the issue is already assigned to Lance Andersen (who is hopefully reading this).

The solution I have arrived at seems naively simple however, so I imagine there 
is more to the problem than I have considered. How far along have other fixes 
for this gotten?

Also apologies if this is the wrong mailing list or way to reach out. I am new 
to the OpenJDK community so I may be lacking in etiquette.

Any reply would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Sholto Bolton
