Heather VanCura will be our special guest this particular evening. Ms. VanCura runs the worldwide Java Community Process for Oracle Corporation.

Java 9 is targeted for release for March 2017 but that doesn't mean you need to wait until next year to understand how the new features might benefit your projects. Also learn how to take part in the Java technology evolution through the Java Community Process (JCP) program run by Heather Van Cura. This session gives you step-by-step instructions on how to participate in the JCP Program. You will also learn about the global Adopt-a-JSR program and how you can participate in the Adopt-a-JSR program through the Baltimore Washington Java Meetup. Find out how you can contribute to the future editions of the Java Standard and Java Enterprise Editions.
