Keynote Java: Restructuring the Java Community Process
November, 22nd | 09:00-09:45 am

The Java Community Process (JCP) plays a critical role in the evolution of Java.  This keynote will explain how the JCP is organized and how interested members of the Java community - commercial organizations, non-profits, Java user-groups, and individual developers - work together to advance the Java language and platforms. It will then discuss recent and upcoming changes to the JCP's structure and operating processes, and will explain how these changes ('JCP.next') will make the organization more efficient and will ensure that its work is carried out in a more open and more transparent manner.
