Java DevRoom talk proposal: JDK 9 Outreach - The Awesome Parts

[dalibor topic]

Title: JDK 9 Outreach - The Awesome Parts

Abstract:

      Over the last couple of years, the OpenJDK Quality Outreach effort
has become a good source of high quality feedback from many popular FOSS
projects starting with JDK 7 Updates, JDK 8 and JDK 8 Updates. It now
plays the same role for JDK 9.

      With a number of large changes being planned for JDK 9 that are
being developed through the OpenJDK community, reaching out to popular
FOSS projects well ahead of a release and keeping them informed of
upcoming changes, collecting as well as acting on their feedback created
a great feedback loop.

      Today, around 80 open source projects and communities participate
in testing of early access builds of the JDK, reporting issues they
find, and helping get them resolved in time. In this session, we'll look
at some examples of how they have helped make JDK 9 better, and discuss
how we can together improve the OpenJDK Quality Outreach effort for JDK 10.

     is acceptable
