[8u-dev] Request for approval: JDK-6933879: URISyntaxException when non-alphanumeric characters are present in scope_id

[Seán Coffey]

Konstantin,

can you hold off pushing this fix to jdk8u for the moment ? It's a P4 
and could have behavioural consequences (something we try and avoid in 
update releases). I see JDK-8071458 was logged to track IPv6 scope 
specifications. Let's see how this soaks into JDK 9 over coming days and 
let's see how JDK-8071458 progresses.

regards,
Sean.
