We can choose from the below mentioned topics.

I had tweeted to the delhi ncr jug w.r.t adopt-a-jsr program for java ee 8. No response though! :-) any ideas around that?? I am not an expert but very open to the idea of having internal knowledge sharing sessions around Java EE 7 and Java 8 (or either of them).

Would love to get some inputs !

Cheers!
Abhishek

Hi Abhishek,

I also posted a survey in 2013 in this group asking if someone would like to contribute to Adopt-a-JSR, few people responded and I had a discussion with Chennai JUG leader Rajmahendra Hegde on how did Chennai JUG started this and contributed to JSRs. For this, the first and most important thing to do is to have a physical meetup every month ( Chennai JUG do weekly). All the meetups we had till date is all online. No physical meetups, as the response to the online meetups are also very less.

Also people would need extra time to contribute (volunteering ) to the Adopt-A-JSR program. Everyone has their own priorities after office hours. That is the biggest reason for the people not to join the program.

If you would like to present any session on the Java EE etc. Please let me know, we can schedule an online meetup for this.

Thanks & Regards,
Jitendra Chittoda

Sure Jitendra - completely agree with the priority and bandwidth part :-)

Is it possible to have that poll again ? Do you think it is worth it? Regardless of the result, it would be great to a internal presentation reg adopt-a-jsr itself in order for people to understand it better and realize its value, and then decide. There were some great sessions around this in javaone 2014.

Regarding internal knowledge sharing - i am ok starting up something on java ee 7. We can setup something if we have enough folks interested in this :-)

Friends - anyone else wants to share/talk about techie Java stuff? Shoot your proposals and interact :-)

Thanks,
Abhishek

Hi Jitendra/Abhishek,

I heard this thing(JSRs) several times but have not sure what does it mean? I am sorry. Can any one explain me?

If it is related to do some project together then i am in. I am very much interested in this concept because it gives lots of opportunity. If it is require to meet up then it is perfectly fine with me. At least one can afford 1-2 hours per week or fortnight. It is not getting longer than that. We can use go to meeting as well sometimes. We have to start somewhere and can't expect big number from starting but as times pass by we sure have more participant.

What do you say guys?

Thanks Bro..,I will look at them.

How about on my suggestion?

[Jitendra Chittoda]

Yes, we can start with a small group and continue adding interested contributors. 

First lets make the google survey for the current open JSRs under the Adopt-a-JSR umbrella. We can have separate discussion on what to include in the survey.

[Abhishek Gupta]

You are right Tushar. We might have to start small and take it from there :-)

As far as JSR are concerned - they are Java Specification Requests which are basically a means of developing, maintaining and tracking Java standards in an open and community friendly manner e.g. the latest version of Java i.e. Java 8 was developed under the JSR 337 (https://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=337).

These JSRs are managed by the JCP (Java Community Process) which is an official body consisting of various members - its ensures that the processes outlined for each JSR are indeed followed.

All in all - this is all for community participation and foster a more open way of collaborative development. Apart from that, Jitendra has already pointed to great resources which I am sure will provide more details

Abhishek Gupta
