Hi,
 
A new feature in the SKARA tooling is now live for the jdk8u-dev[1]
repository. New PRs will not gain the "ready" label until a
maintainer[2] has acked the bug with "jdk8u-fix-yes" label or with the
'/approve' command[4] on the PR.
 
Also, you can request approval with the /approval[3] command.
Thus you can do this now without having access to JBS.
Please note that the new command doesn’t change the requirement
of a useful fix request comment according to [5](Step 10). The 
comment can be included in the /approval command.
 
Details in:
https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/SKARA-2047

A similar process hook is in place for the jdk8u[6] repository where we
collect critical fixes during ramp-down prior a release. 
 
Please let us know if that isn't working as expected.
 
Thanks,
Severin
