Adopt OpenJDK Hackday - October 2015

[Mani Sarkar]

Hi all,

A bit late update about last (October)  month's Hackday. As usual we had
the Adopt OpenJDK hackday in London, see
*http://www.meetup.com/Londonjavacommunity/events/225675552/
<http://www.meetup.com/Londonjavacommunity/events/225675552/>.*

This time it was Chris Newland who gave us a good overview of Jitwatch -
thanks Chris - nice intro (see https://github.com/AdoptOpenJDK/jitwatch/).
After his presentation most of us gather to continue with building OpenJDK
on the MacOS and Linux using VM images. The feedback gathered from the
sessions helped with adding and updating some useful information to the
GSK, see
https://neomatrix369.gitbooks.io/adoptopenjdk-getting-started-kit/content/en/whatsChanged.html
.

These are mainly on OpenJDK projects that could get some help from the
community by giving feedback on them - by using them. Any feedback or
queries are welcome on this forum or the respective OpenJDK mailing lists.

Thanks again, and see you at the next hackday in November.

Regards,
Mani
