[gentoo-dev] Call for Java devs

Greetings,

The Gentoo Java team is looking for 2-4 new developers.  Possibly more 
later on.

Ideally, developers will have ~3 years of Java programming experience, 
particularly with commercial environments running servlet engines and the 
Apache/Jakarta libraries and packages.  Much of the current effort is 
going to be put into improving Gentoo as a platform for Java services.

We need the usual assistance with expanding the # of packages available in 
the tree, and keeping the ones we have current, tested, polished.

Developers are also needed to test & maintain our Java packages running on 
sparc and ppc... and also more "experimental" archs such as alpha, arm and 
mips.

We are also working towards support for a GNU JDK, specifically supporting 
GCJ-compiled native code.  Matthew Kennedy (mkennedy) is taking lead on 
that piece and we'd like to have some additional help getting the GNU JDK 
worked into java-config.

If any of these tasks interest you, and you'd like to help out, please mail 
recruiters@gentoo.org, and cc: absinthe@gentoo.org.   

Or stop in #gentoo-java on Freenode (which was created today) and say 
hello.  I'll be around after 4PM EST (GMT-5).

Cheers,
Dylan Carlson
