Nestmates: JEP 181 CSR request is ready for review

[Karen Kinnear]

David,

Thank you so much for doing this. Very clear description.

I marked this as “Reviewed by"

A minor review question:

1. Compatibility risk:
Would it make sense to add one more note:
Classes in the same package as an existing inner/outer class which took advantage of javac-generated
package private bridges to allow inner/outer class access to private members, will now receive an
IllegalAccessError. This is an intentional tightening of security for private member access.

thanks,
Karen
