A couple of comments:
*) I think it would be helpful to also describe the change using API
terms, so it is more clear to programmers who may not recognize all the
crypto terminology. Perhaps: "... will now exclusively use the SunJCE
Mac service for the underlying pseudorandom function (PRF)."
*) It's labeled RN-IssueFixed, but the text describes a change in
behavior, not an issue. Maybe add a sentence like: "This change fixes an
issue where..." Or perhaps use RN-Change, if the purpose of the note is
to describe the change in behavior.

Hi guys,
Can someone give a quick review for the release note for JDK-8218723
(the fix for SunJCE PBKDF2 SecretKeyFactories using SunJCE for the
underlying PRF)? Should be really quick. I have it here:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8220791
Thanks,
