summary
Describes the JEP (JDK Enhancement Proposal) process that turns ideas into Java code: a JEP is required for any substantial change (work over two weeks) and must follow the JEP template (including a mandatory Alternatives section). Covers OpenJDK governance roles (author, committer, reviewer, project lead), project sponsorship, contributor agreement signing, and the JEP lifecycle from draft → candidate → integrated with testing phases before inclusion in a bi‑annual JDK release.
