All OpenJFX Developers,

As I think most of you know, we are (more slowly than I would like) moving towards enabling jcheck for FX repos. This work is tracked by JDK-8145561 [1].

As the next step along this path, I have created an OpenJFX "Using jcheck" [2] Wiki page with instructions for running jcheck with OpenJFX. All committers must read this page before pushing any code to an OpenJFX repo. Until we enable jcheck on the server, it will still be a manual process -- you have to remember to run 'hg jcheck' before you push, but at least this will make it very easy to do so.

Along with the move towards jcheck, and also because we are just about to start rampdown phase 1 for JDK 9, we are eliminating the post-commit review of OpenJFX changesets. This change is documented on the updated OpenJFX "Code Reviews" [3] policy page. This is more in line with policy governing the rest of the JDK and is what jcheck requires. This policy change is effective Friday, Aug 26 (tomorrow) at noon Pacific time.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
