[Updates Communication] 16.0.2 security changes pushed

[Langer, Christoph]

Hi Rob,

thanks for pushing the changes.

However, the concept with using branches seems quite new... Was this somehow announced or documented? Can we expect this in the future? I'm asking because the contract between the jdk16u repository and our downstream automation is broken by this. We currently pull branch 'master' and check the contained tags.

The problem is that tag jdk-16.0.2-ga has not been merged into 'master'. The master branch only contains jdk-16.0.2+3. Also a "git diff master jdk-16.0.2-ga" is not empty.

So, can you please merge jdk-16.0.2-ga into master?

Thanks & Best regards
Christoph
