Have you done *anything* to try to reinvigorate the Java SIG? I've not seen anything at all about this problem. Do Java folks in the ecosystem who happen to use RH/Fedora ecosystem stuff know about it? Are you doing any outreach/advocacy either across the distro ecosystem or across the Java ecosystem to try to bring interested people in helping with Java stack work? With Rust, we elected to try to become part of the Rust ecosystem, and we've also taken the tack of working with other distributions to be able to leverage the efforts across distros to make things better. We are in the process of reviving the Go SIG in a similar manner. There's no reason Java couldn't too. And unlike Rust and Go, people *need* Java for both legacy and new things! Java can be exciting and interesting, but some effort has to be made to "get the word out". The Python SIG also does a decent job talking about itself and showing up at Python events to talk about how Fedora loves Python. Do we love Java too? -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
