Yes, I think yours are good to go.

* New Java 8 URLPermission support
* Plugin
   - PR1743 - Intermittant deadlock in PluginRequestProcessor
* PolicyEditor
   - codebases can be renamed in-place, copied, and pasted
   - codebase URLs can be copied to system clipboard
   - displays a progress dialog while opening or saving files
   - codebases without permissions assigned save to file anyway (and 
re-appear on next open)
   - PR1776: NullPointer on save-and-exit
   - PR1850: duplicate codebases when launching from security dialogs
* Temporary Permissions in security dialog now multi-selectable and 
based on PolicyEditor permissions

How's that?

Thanks,
