Max,
It's not clear to me that the contributions to the BSD Port project can
be used to demonstrate contributions to the jdk8 project. In the jdk8
history (hg logs) then the only reference I can find to Landon is in the
attributions on the initial (huge) change-sets that brought the Mac port
into jdk8. He was clearly a key contributor and leader in that effort,
it's just that there isn't any evidence of recent or direct
contributions to the jdk8 project.
