Confirmation about jdk11u approval process

[Ichiroh Takiguchi]

Hello Andrew.

Thank you for help.

I did not know about milestones for jdk11u.
So I was late...

Critical one may be JDK-8211393 [1] for Unix platform.

These are for OpenJDK for AIX.
On jdk11, Java did not start with AIX's 3 locales.
It was restriction on jdk11.
On the latest build on jdk13, AIX's all locales are supported by 
OpenJDK.

JDK-8208634 [2], JDK-8213618 [3], JDK-8212794 [4], JDK-8214533 [5], 
JDK-8217880 [6]

[1] https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8211393
[2] https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8208634
[3] https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8213618
[4] https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8212794
[5] https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8214533
[6] https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8217880

Thanks,
