[type-annos-observers] Public Review for JSR 308

[Alex Buckley]

In line with the Java SE 8 Platform schedule at 
http://openjdk.java.net/projects/jdk8/spec/, we're planning to submit 
materials for the Public Review of JSR 308 next Thursday, 10/24.

The Public Review will run from 10/31 to 12/02, with approval ballots in 
the JCP Executive Committee from 12/03 to 12/16. The other SE 8 JSRs are 
doing the same.

In preparation for this milestone, I have updated the draft JLS/JVMS 
document at http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~abuckley/308.pdf, considering 
Markus' recent comments and adding a summary of API changes. The full SE 
8 API will be presented in the Umbrella JSR's Public Review.

Comments are welcome any time on type-annotation-spec-experts or 
-comments, though you may wish to batch up your comments and submit them 
during throughout the PR period.
