Hello,

I am new to the list and just got my OCA processed.

I have been using Java language as my main development language for a few
years. So I would like to learn more about the language and platform and
contribute my bit.

I am particular interested in JDK development and trying to follow the
progress currently. Any help or guidance will be appreciated.

Thank you.

Best Regards,
Kok Pyng

Hi Kok,

Welcome to OpenJDK!  We have a guide on how to contribute:
http://openjdk.java.net/contribute/

The Adoption Group (http://openjdk.java.net/groups/adoption/) is a place
you can go to for extra resources if you are new to OpenJDK.



Cheers,
Martijn

Hello guys,

I just want to introduce myself.
My name is Florian, I am 23 years old and currently studying computer 
science at JKU in Linz, Austria.
In my bachelor thesis I am dealing with debugging support in Sulong.
It's a LLVM IR interpreter written in the Truffle framework and that's 
how I found my way to you :)

I am looking forward to a good cooperation with you guys.

Best regards
Florian

Hi Florian,

Welcome to OpenJDK!  If you get lost then you can pop over to the adoption

Hi Volker,

Call for votes go to the announce list, while calls for discussion of 
project proposals go to the discuss list. You sent this CFV to both ?? 
Was there an intent to initiate a discussion before the vote?

Thanks,
David

Pre-discussion perhaps :) Official discussion should have been on the 
discuss list.

Also it seems some people are sending their votes to the discuss list 
when they should go to the announce list.

I suggest this CFV be withdrawn and restarted with only the correct 
mailing list involved.

Keep in mind that a separate discussion on the discuss list is 
technically an optional step, though, per 
http://openjdk.java.net/projects/#new-project . ;)

Regarding votes on new Projects 
http://openjdk.java.net/projects/#new-project has this to say:

"Eligible voters cast their vote by sending e-mail to the general 
discussion list."

Yes but I read that as "discussion is optional, but if it happens then 
it should happen on the general discussion list".

Sorry - Yes I misread part of that. I was confused by the sending of the 
CFV to the announce list and the statement "Replying to this message is 
sufficient if your mail program honors the Reply-To header." - but there 
is nothing about setting a reply-to header mentioned anywhere that I can 
see.

Hi David,

"same discussion as every year" :)

Please see your comments and Iris' and my replies on the same topic
back in 2012 when I started a CFV for the PowerPC/AIX project:

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/discuss/2012-May/002640.html
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/discuss/2012-May/002647.html

I hope your mail was not intended to be count as a "Veto" :)

Regards,
Volker

Yeah I re-found that too. :)

> I hope your mail was not intended to be count as a "Veto" :)

Absolutely not. I was initially a bit confused having seen the RFE that 
IBM filed to start a port, and then I saw the CFV with SAP contributing 
a port. I knew there was something missing in the middle. :)

David

Hello everyone,

I want to introduce myself as a new contributer :)

So, my name is Eugene. I am a student and completing the bachelor's degree
in computer science at Higher School of Economics in Moscow. Java is my
favorite language and I want to make it better. In addition, I had some
experience working with GCC (ARM) optimizations at Institute for System
Programming of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

I believe that I can be useful :)

Kind regards,
Eugene Kudryashov.
