Removing the Barrier

[Peter Levart]

The javadoc comments in public API are a requirement in OpenJDK and can 
not be removed. This is the OpenJDK project policy. If you want to 
extend OpenJDK you have to add the comments. And not only comments. New 
public API may be added to OpenJDK only after passing the special 
process called CSR:

https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/csr/Main

So if your schedule doesn't allow you to add comments, I would not 
venture into adding new public API to OpenJDK as it is much more work 
than just adding comments...
