No one is obligated to respond to messages sent to the observers list, per the description on the JSR 337 page [1]. > and when I post to the comments > list a moderator never approves my posts. My apologies -- moderation requests for the comments list weren't making it into my inbox, but I've fixed that. > How am I supposed to contribute?

You're welcome to send detailed comments and suggestions to the java-se-8-spec-comments list, and all such messages will eventually get a response. You're likely to get a more immediate response, however, if you go directly to the relevant OpenJDK mailing list. The core-libs-dev list, e.g., would be a good place to raise your suggestions about the StackTraceElement and MessageFormat classes. - Mark [1] http://openjdk.java.net/projects/jdk8/spec/
