That set of pages is mostly filled with promises of the form "This section
will contain...".  For
example<http://openjdk.java.net/guide/processWorkflow.html>
:
Process Workflow version 0.01

This is the main navigation for the document and the primary entry point. It
is intended to be a quick start and overview which will have a hyperlinked
diagram indicating sample work flows for common operations such as
submitting a bug fix and adding a new API.

At one time these sections also contained a schedule for when they would be
completed, but those dates have long since passed and the schedule has been
removed.  It appears that supporting external contributors was never very
high-priority.
