Adopt OpenJDK @ BG JUG, Step 2

[Martijn Verburg]

Hi Ivan,

Are you able to host it in a non Google Drive location?  Unfortunately
Google Drive doesn't act as a 'real' web server and so you get the raw HTML
as opposed to the output displayed.  I/we should then be able to give some
advice on the suitability.

On the other question, it's usually best to have one patch per issue.

Cheers,
Martijn
