I don't see any problem with the patches as a test and you can list me as reviewer too if you wish. Wouldn't it be better to use some leading zeros in the bug ID with a view to future formatting? i.e. 000001 rather than just 1? > Kelly suggested that _only_ bug ids from the OpenJDK6 JIRA should be > used once we switch over.

In fact, it'll already be broken by the patch I approved for Jiri. Most of the patches are going to be backports with Oracle bug IDs. I don't see many cases where you'd commit something ONLY to 6 and not 7 or 8. I wonder if it's worth having an identifier at the front to separate the bug IDs from the purely numerical Oracle ones? So maybe OJ0001 or OJ60001 though that looks a bit ugly... > Any suggestions, thoughts or comments? > > Thanks, > Omair > > [1] http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk6/jdk6/jdk/rev/0d99d61882b7 > [1] http://java.net/jira/browse/OPENJDK6 > -- > PGP Key: 66484681 (http://pgp.mit.edu/) > Fingerprint = F072 555B 0A17 3957 4E95 0056 F286 F14F 6648 4681 > -- Andrew :) Free Java Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc.
