OpenJDK Binary

[Martijn Verburg]

We == a bunch of OpenJDK hackers that were at FOSDEM, including some Oracle
folks, linux distro folks (eg red hat, debian) and lots of independant
hackers. I didn't exactly take a roll call.

My position?  Grand lord admiral, hmm no wait the bylaws probably don't
allow that :-).

I'm just an enthusiastic amateur hacker who wants to see more Java
developers get involved in the OpenJDK <shrug>.
