What's the progress of Project Galahad?

[Douglas Simon]

Hi Glavo,

The goal of the Galahad project is to better align the GraalVM project with OpenJDK & OracleJDK.  You have already seen some changes from Galahad in that GraalVM is now releasing on the same schedule as OpenJDK and aligning our feature development.

However, Galahad is mostly about aligning the development process between the two teams and shouldn’t have any significant affect on user-visible features in the GraalVM distro, or in the ability for the community to make enhancements to the GraalVM GitHub project.  As shown by the Skara OpenJDK Project, you can see the complexities in making substantial changes to a development process at this scale.

As a GraalVM user, is there a particular aspect of Galahad that is relevant to you? What is exciting to you about Galahad?  We are always looking for feedback.

Thanks,

-Doug
