      Description

        runtime/6981737/Test6981737.java corrently checks that the 'java.vendor' and 'java.vm.vendor' properties are equal to "Oracle Corporation". I think that's wrong!

        It is clear that "java.specification.vendor" and "java.vm.specification.vendor" have to be equal to "Oracle Corporation" as long as Oracle leads the corresponding platform JSRs. Besides that, every OpenJDK distributor should be able to set 'java.vendor' and 'java.vm.vendor' according to his needs. Note that there are also additional "vendor" properties like "java.vendor.url" and "java.vendor.url.bug" which really only make sense if customized by the corresponding distributor.

        Making these properties configurable at runtime is tracked by JDK-8189761.
