Jigsaw Hackday in September

[Carl Jokl]

Dear all

Sorry I have been so quiet but I have some fires to put out in my own business that has kept me occupied.

I have a lot of thoughts on the mobile side of Jigsaw. I don’t know what Oracles strategy is for Jigsaw on mobile but have my own suggestions and also how I hope to best be able to contribute to that effort.

I am very hardcore and quite enjoy low level programming. I don’t mind maintaining an ARM or Intel Atom based JVM in C/C++ or even assembler if needs be. Also any JNI bindings to allow Java to communicate with mobile hardware. I am technical enough to deal with whatever you throw at me. It is hard to say what my time I have available until I have lined up my next job role.
I do have to pay my high London rent as well as hacking on the JDK.
