JDK 9 Outreach

[Carl Jokl]

I also reached out to the head of the project for Java on modern mobile O/S
platforms to say I really want to be involved in the effort. It is a shame
the LJC conference is on the same day as Google's GDG conference as I was
hoping to try and get some good contacts on Googles Android team. I have
been working at this for some time but Google is so big is is really hard
just to find someone who knows the right person to talk to or if the
suggested people are difficult to get hold of. I suspect Apple could be
even worse that way. I have friends in Microsoft but not working with the
Mobile team but they might help me get in touch with the right people.

Regards

Carl
