Wow, that's awesome - 8 had a handful of custom patches and some backports, 11 had only backports, and 17 has nothing. This is kind of the best possible story for a distribution fork!

In fairness, Java 17 has just been released; it's possible new custom patches will be introduced in future Corretto patch releases.

Still, the fact that Corretto 11 had so few backports is encouraging.
