Am I blind or can someone point out how to comment on a JEP?
Each JEP has a "Discussion" field pointing to the most appropriate mailing list to discuss it.
The JEP is linked to https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8061493 but how do you get an account on that?
JBS accounts are available to OpenJDK developers. Please see the "Account Eligibility" section of https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/general/JBS+Overview for more details.
I recall hearing a preso on how the comments for Java were locked down for fear of too much feedback... or something.
Anyone can submit issues through bugs.java.com and, as necessary, participate in discussing their resolution on the corresponding mailing lists.
In the OpenJDK community, mailing lists are used for discussions, while the issue tracker is, broadly speaking, used to record facts.
While that is different from the 'anything goes anywhere' setup implicitly or explicitly favored by some other open source communities, it also removes a lot of the friction resulting from such an approach.
