Java Advent 2020 - Let's do this!

[Holger Steinhauer]

Hi all.

What a year so far. We hope everyone is well and healthy.

With all these things going on, more than half a year flew by already. And we are getting closer to December. And what do we love most about December, I mean next to the holidays? Correct, our Java Advent.

So, let's do this. Who is up for another round of genuine fresh content to make these 24 days to Christmas easier to survive?

All the best and stay safe,

Your Java Advent Team

[Uberto Barbini]

I am!
it's just strange to think about xmas in Aug :)

Sounds great. I’ll get a document with free slots started for the
slots.

And yes, forward thinking? (Lame excuse, but hey :P )

[Frankel, Nicolas]

Thanks Holger!

I'd like to propose to invite new authors. There are a couple of benefits: it's easier to fill all the slots, and it doesn't put pressure on each author to provide several articles.

I did it last year, and I think it yielded pretty good results. What do you think?

Best regards,

Nicolas Fränkel

Hi Nicolas.

Absolutely! We’d love to have more authors on board!

Let me know how we can help!

Cheers,
Holger

Perhaps every author could contact another potential new author? If we have more authors than slots, I'll be happy to step down and leave my slot to a new author.

If there's a short blurb that sets expectations that I could send out that would be awesome.

Cheers,
Martijn

How about if we post an article on Java advent and use that to share it. Twitter and other channels?

[Frankel, Nicolas]

Great idea! I'll be happy to retweet it 👍

[olimpiu pop]

As I am in such a distinct company, how about if we come up with some topics or directions about articles. Probably in that way we can focus our efforts. 

[Nikhil Nanivadekar]

Do we have a sign-up sheet? 

Thanks,

Nikhil.
