Talk Proposal: JDK 7 Updates: Lessons Learned

[Dalibor Topic]

*Title*:
JDK 7 Updates: Lessons Learned

*Abstract*:
The JDK 7 Updates Project in the OpenJDK Community has been around for more 
then two years, breaking a new ground in how JDK updates are made and trying 
out a few new things in the process.

This session will go into lessons learned from producing updates to the JDK 
as part of an open source Project. Some of the new things worked, while others 
required some tweaking. I'll cover lessons learned on a broad set of technical 
issues, from forest and repository management, tagging, development processes 
& transparency to release management and communication.

*Recording me on audio and/or video is*:
Not acceptable
