The GCC 7 release criteria page mentions Java even though

noticed a few minor typos that I corrected in the patch as well.

Btw., as an aside, I read the page to see if I could find out more
about the "magic" bug counts that are being aimed for to decide when
to cut the release.  Can someone say what those are and where to
find them?  I understand from the document that they're not exact
but even ballpark numbers would be useful.

OK.

WRT the bug counts.  0 P1 regressions, < 100 P1-P3 regressions.  I'm
not
sure if that's documented anywhere though.

Actually the only criteria is zero P1 regressions.  Those are documented to 
block a release.

Yes, that is mentioned in the document.  Would it be fair to say
that the number of P2 bugs (or regressions) or their nature plays
into the decision in some way as well?  If so, what can the release
criteria say about it?

I'm trying to get a better idea which bugs to work on and where
my help might have the biggest impact.  I think having better
visibility into the bug triage process (such as bug priorities
and how they impact the release schedule) might help others
focus too.
