Patches can also be accepted if they are emailed to an openjdk.java.net
email address (eg aarch64-port-dev at openjdk.java.net). In this case the
patch must be inlined in the email, as attachments will be stripped.

This is the way people who are not at least OpenJDK authors can
contribute patches. Otherwise there is a catch 22 situation as you need
to submit 2 patches to become an author, and you need to be an author
to submit patches.

The main point in all this is to ensure that the patch is pushed
somehow to an Oracle server, and emailing them to o.j.n counts as
pushing them.

All the best,
Ed.
