The Java *Community* Process: how you can help to define the future of Java
summary
The JCP explains how Java evolves through JSRs that require a specification, a reference implementation and a conformance test suite (TCK) so competing vendors interoperate; about 900 members, a 25-seat executive committee and roughly 50 Java User Groups already participate. The Adopt-a-JSR program enlists user groups to implement and test Java EE 7 and Java SE 8 work, OpenJDK and GlassFish host code, and recent process JSRs add associate membership and remove corporate fees to boost community contribution.
