[OpenJDK 2D-Dev] Openjdk java2d rasterizer JEP for pisces (marlin) enhancements ?

[Mario Torre]

I agree with Andrew, getting the JEP proposed is the minimum
requirement to get this work unstuck.

I believe he doesn't need to be strictly a member though, but just
author to start the process (basically to get permissions to file a
bug report).

The JEP0 doesn't seem to specify any other requirement and so JEP 2.0
draft 2 (which is what Laurent should use). It's not clear to me what
it needs to create a project, afaik only Members can do, but I don't
see it clearly worded in the Bylaws (I'm sure it's there, just I can't
see it?).

Cheers,
Mario
