Hi all,

The fix for bug JDK-8029616 
<https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8029616> Update jdeps man page 
to include a new -jdkinternals option is up for review:

OpenJDK:
Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rgallard/8029616/open/webrev/
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rgallard/8029616/open/jdeps.1

Closed JDK
Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rgallard/8029616/closed/webrev/
nroff file to be reviewed: 
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rgallard/8029616/closed/jdeps.1

Please send your approval or comments by *Wednesday, December 11th.*

*Scope of Review***
_Sanity check content only_ as opposed to reviewing the nroff markup 
itself.

*How To View A Man Page***
1. Download the nroff file in a directory
2. Bring up a terminal window and change to that directory.
3. View a man page with a command of the form "man -M man {pagename}".
For example, to view the javap man page, run the command:

       $ man -M man javap

*Notes:*
- (Linux and Mac only.) The -t option to the man command will
generate typeset output in PostScript format and send it to stdout:

       $ man -M man -t javap > javap.ps

PostScript can be displayed using Preview (on Mac) and by the Gnome
Document Viewer (Linux/Gnome). (On Solaris, the man -t option will
send the output to a printer, which might not be what you want.)

If bullets render as a funny character, set Remote Character Set to 
UTF-8 in your Putty terminal (Change Settings... > Window > Translation 
 > Remote character set > UTF-8)*
*
Thanks,
--Raymond Gallardo
