The PRs have a pretty large granularity -- each one is a significant amount of work. Gary has been working steadily on the throwpoint test cases. My impression is that many of the checks are actually in place, so this doesn't translate directly to a lot of commits to Classpath. However, the tests are important in their own right, as they give us some assurance that we won't regress. All this work of his comes under the umbrella of a single PR -- hence no action there. We could certainly use help in this area. There's more to do, as I'm sure you know (I saw you were CCd on all the security PRs).

Right now we have this whitelist thing, which works nicely -- better than I expected :-). But, yes, security is vital for the long term. Tom
