As you might be aware, the Adopt-a-JSR program was started by the London Java Community and SouJava to encourage more grassroots level participation in the JCP. The idea is for developers to closely engage with a JSR they are interested in through their own JUG. No less than 15 JUGs worldwide have already joined the Adopt-a-JSR program including Chennai JUG, BeJUG, GoJava, Morrocco JUG, Campinas JUG and ItpJava.
The folks behind the Adopt-a-JSR program are now hosting an online meetup on January 18th! Anyone can join the meetup to learn more details about the program, how it benefits them and their JUG, and how they can provide feedback. Martijn Verberg from the LJC, Bruno Souza from SouJava, Arun Gupta from the Java EE/GlassFish team and Heather VanCura from the JCP program office will be leading the meetup.
