When such data is changed, most of the time build-dev (or the new build label) is involved, even though this has nothing to do with the build. While this is annoying, a worse problem is if the actual team that needs to review the patch (i.e., the team owning the module) is missed in the review.

I reviewed java.base and java.se.  I agree that java.se is a better home for jdwp.spec.
