When Paul initially asked for an osx development forest, he pointed out that jdk7u-osx would follow the existing development processes. Development forest in this case means it's as stable as the respective teams make it (i.e. not always perfectly stable), not that it's different from a transparency & approval process perspective. It could be if it has to, though, but so far I don't think that we had anyone request a separate process for the osx forest, given that it is in phase 1, and phase 1 is pretty lightweight by design. In order to make the approval process not block on me or Edvard, I proposed earlier in this thread to make Paul a maintainer for the osx forest then he could handle all the approvals himself, or he could then delegate them per component, for example, to other maintainers - which I think is basically what you need - a way to federate responsibility for approvals to the various teams working on the port. I'd be happy to make multiple people maintainers of the osx forest, too - just let me know what your preferred mode of operation is. cheers, dalibor topic -- Oracle <http://www.oracle.com> Dalibor Topic | Java F/OSS Ambassador Phone: +494023646738 <tel:+494023646738> | Mobile: +491772664192 <tel:+491772664192> Oracle Java Platform Group ORACLE Deutschland B.V. & Co.
