... or, well, more to the truth, we're *not* hiring. At least not in
the sense that we'll pay you money. But we do want beta testers
anyway! :-) Your reward will be a new build system that will work on
the systems and configurations you care about, right out of the box,
and a fuzzy warm feeling.<br>
<br>
A document that describes how to try out the new build system, and
that answers many questions that you might have, is here:<br>

<br>
The TL;DR:<br>
<ol>
<li>
<p>Clone the project forest.</p>
<pre><code>hg clone <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://hg.openjdk.java.net/build-infra/jdk9">http://hg.openjdk.java.net/build-infra/jdk9</a> build-infra-jdk9
cd build-infra-jdk9 && bash get_source.sh [additional closed url]
</code></pre>
</li>
<li>
<p>The build infra project is constantly on the move. The safest
way to get to
a working state is by using a tag, e.g. build-infra-beta-01.</p>
<pre><code>bash common/bin/hgforest.sh update -r build-infra-beta-01
</code></pre>
</li>
<li>
<p>Build it. This works just as the with old build.</p>
<pre><code>bash configure && make
</code></pre>
</li>
</ol>
If you have questions or want to report bugs or enhancement
requests, please
direct them to the build-infra project list <code><a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:build-infra-dev@openjdk.java.net">build-infra-dev@openjdk.java.net</a></code>.
Note that this is different from the Build Group mailing list
<code><a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:build-dev@openjdk.java.net">build-dev@openjdk.java.net</a></code>.<br>
