Hello,
(snip)
So are the meetings being held with the java-sig? When are they? All of
us interested java community members should attend I think if we want
to offer an opinion or even just have something to say.
If you search fedora calendar for java-sig you get an empty list. There is java-devel
mailing list which is a (very) „low traffic“ list.
In my simple life and use of java, I find having a stable JDK and
the
recent(ish) maven sufficient. Everything else is difficult to pin down
and I find alot of it is project dependant and changes based on that,
not based on the Distro I'm using. If I look at a commercially
available OS that is quite popular, they only package the JRE leaving
averything else up to the user WRT what they need for a dev stack.
I use often what is probably „the other" commercially available OS. I’ve to download
everything including the JRE from third party sources and have to setup and maintain
everything myself.
On Fedora, especially all my servers, I really appreciate that all of this is done for me
automatically, including notification and installation of updates - if a rpm is
available.
