At the meeting today (minutes forthcoming) Volker raised the issue that he hadn’t seen a spec review for the JVM changes for Preview features, which should require a JVMS change.  I’ve run down the details.

There is a JVMS spec issue for 11:

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8200338 <https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8200338>

which is depended on by the HotSpot change for 11:

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8198908 <https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8198908>

which has a (SE-scoped) CSR:

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8200440 <https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8200440>

So, it turns out that the process was followed correctly, and this issue did show up on the CSR dashboard for SE 11.  So, everything is good.
