Thanks Andrew. That explains why :) The jaxp bugs on OpenJDK Bugzilla were actually passed onto me by Alan, by the way.

So it seems to me, JAXP Jira is a better option since I would be noticed when new issues are created. I can then add Oracle Bug ID as you mentioned.

Regards,
Joe

Bugs can also be filed through OpenJDK Bugzilla, but so far, we only had
two, e.g. https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/show_bug.cgi?id=100017


That's probably because:

* You can STILL only use it to post patches, not report bugs.  It
never moved on to the later stages that were planned.
* Most of them are ignored (though the JAXP ones seem to be a happy
exception to this norm)
* The bug IDs can't be used to commit (see the first point) so you
need an Oracle bug ID anyway, which I usually request from the Oracle
dev. who reviews the patch.  Seems to be much quicker for them than
us...

It would be nice to see some, if not all, these things fixed, but
that's why I guess you're seeing low bug reporting in there.
