[8u Communication] JDK 8u112 timeline

[Rob McKenna]

Hi folks,

I've published a proposal for the key milestone dates relating to the 8u112 release:

http://openjdk.java.net/projects/jdk8u/releases/8u112.html

April 2016     8u-dev forest begins collecting 8u112 fixes (completed)
July 2016      RampDown 2 (Fork for the stabilization forests)
Oct 2016       GA

Note that these timelines are preliminary only and are subject to change. Please refer to the JDK 8 milestones definition page [1] for a summary of what each milestone consists of. Please submit feedback by Friday the 13th of May 2016.

Thanks,

       -Rob
