Preface

OpenJDK is a unique project that opens numerous and exciting opportunities for people who want to dive into the huge and complicated infrastructure behind the JVM. There is an incredible amount of things to learn and to explore. Almost anyone can find something in it as per their interest, starting from HTTP, Web, software dependency problems, and ending with hardware-specific JIT optimization techniques, and concurrency challenges. Such variety is very unique and it would be true to say that there is no other open source project that can provide something similar. The other factor is that there are not so many other open source projects on that scale; possibly only the Linux core. Such scale requires a non-trivial organizational approach and, to be involved in that process, to see how it works, is a very interesting insight.
