On applying for Author at the JDK Project

[Jules W.]

Hi all,

Currently I'm thinking of applying for the Author position at the JDK
project, but the OpenJDK Project page (https://openjdk.java.net/projects/) is
somewhat vague about how to do so, simply saying to contact the project
lead after 2 pull requests have been merged without offering a proper
communication channel to do so. Additionally some of the information on the
site also seems to be outdated, and I'm unsure of whether this outdated
information also includes the section describing the Author application
process. Currently the census lists Mr. Reinhold as the project lead for
the JDK, is there an unmentioned formal communication channel I can use to
apply for Author or should I contact Mr. Reinhold directly as per the
page's instructions? (And if I should do the latter, do I contact him
directly through his Oracle email address?)

Thanks for your patience.

best regards,
Julian
