OpenJDK Quality Outreach - LWJGL

[Rory O'Donnell]

Hi Ioannis,

Can you advise on the contact name you want listed, dev mailing list and 
CI if possible ?

As part of the Quality Outreach I send , every ~3 week, an email to 
contacts regarding the
contents of the latest JDK 9 Early Access build - example attached. I 
try to list any important
changes that have made it into the build. Let me know if you are 
interested in receiving availability emails?

Rgds,Rory
