• Please provide feedback on the poll questions.
• Plan to send out the poll after next call
• On 10.1 question, if security manager is removed from TCK tests, that only helps on JVMs (or implementations) using lazy classloaders (otherwise CNFEs may occur for security manager spec api).
• Can we get clarity on how the Security Manager will actually be removed? E.g. replaced with no-ops etc.
