and the Compiler and Core Libraries Groups as sponsors.<br>
<br>
Babylon's primary goal will be to extend the reach of Java to foreign<br>
programming models such as SQL, differentiable programming, machine<br>
learning models, and GPUs. Babylon will achieve this with an enhancement to<br>
reflective programming in Java, called code reflection.<br>
<br>
For further details, please see the call for discussion [1].<br>
<br>
I propose that the initial Reviewers of this Project include Mourad Abbay, <br>
Maurizio Cimadamore, Gary Frost, Ian Graves, Adam Sotona, and Sandhya <br>
Viswanathan.<br>
<br>
Votes are due by 23:59 UTC on Thursday, 26 Oct 2023.<br>
