Subject: CFV: New Project: Babylon

I hereby propose the creation of a new Project, Babylon, with me as the Lead
and the Compiler and Core Libraries Groups as sponsors.

Babylon's primary goal will be to extend the reach of Java to foreign
programming models such as SQL, differentiable programming, machine
learning models, and GPUs. Babylon will achieve this with an enhancement to
reflective programming in Java, called code reflection.

For further details, please see the call for discussion [1].

I propose that the initial Reviewers of this Project include Mourad Abbay,
Maurizio Cimadamore, Gary Frost, Ian Graves, Adam Sotona, and Sandhya
Viswanathan.

Votes are due by 23:59 UTC on Thursday, 26 Oct 2023.

Only current OpenJDK Members [2] are eligible to vote on this motion. Votes
must be cast in the open on the discuss list. Replying to this message is
sufficient if your mail program honors the Reply-To header.

For Lazy Consensus voting instructions, see [3].

Paul.
