Please do *not* take the issue out of assignee's hands without asking first, and definitely do *NOT* push the fix until the original assignee at least performs some sort of handover. Especially don't do that in the span of less than 24 hours, where the assignee might just be asleep. I also suspect the build infra changes require more reviews, anyway. Don't rush it, folks!

I would like to add to Aleksey's comment that the ideal is that you get 
a review from someone in the Build Group 
(https://openjdk.java.net/census#build). You definitely need to wait 24h 
if you have no Build Group member reviews., unless the PR is extremely 
urgent.
