jdk11u 11.0.2 updates process/schedule for builds?

[Andrew Leonard]

Thanks for the info Rob. That was my thoughts as well that 11.0.1/2 would 
be CPU security fixes only and merged once they are ready..., however what 
i'm a little confused by is that looking at the mercurial log for jdk11u 
shows ~60 changesets beyond the jdk-11.0.1+13 tag, so I am guessing these 
are non-CPU fixes...? This maybe related to the discussion Volker raised 
last month here, not sure I quite understood the resolution on that one?

So for example the fix for this backport (
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8214859) was merged into jdk11u 
yesterday, even though it's targetted for 11.0.3?

Given the extensive set of non-CPU fixes, would we look to label a new 
build level with these at some point?

Thanks
Andrew

It is. 11.0.1/2 are cpu releases containing security fixes.

The build tags will not be made available until just after GA when the
contents of the release are pushed to the open repo.
