* Explain why you believe this is a stop-ship defect. Or, if it is a "hotbug" (requested by an adopter) please document it as such. This is an adopter (Oracle) requested fix which will affect adoption of the feature in question. * Is there a work-around? If so, why do you believe the work-around is insufficient? The workaround requires the adopter to expose "system" level classes to the user in the adopting project, which is very undesirable. * How has the fix been tested? Is there a test case attached to the bugzilla record? Has a JUnit Test been added? Fix has been tested by the adopting product, as well as specific Dali testing to look for regressions by Tran and myself. * Give a brief technical overview. Who has reviewed this fix? We have added all System level container classpaths to our collection of runtime classpaths, where as before we were only adding the system library and default project classpath. * What is the risk associated with this fix? Low. The patch only adds to the classpath content available to the launcher. The only risk would be redundant libraries/version conflicts with these system containers and the user classpath. This can be managed by the user if encountered. The next version of Dali will actively manage the necessary libraries to better handle these issues.

Checked in and released for RC2. Thanks.
