No hold up really. For some time we've been waiting for the new OpenJDK bylaws to come into effect. That happened this week. Now we're just following the process for creating a new project (http://openjdk.java.net/projects/).

This thread puts us at Optional Step 0 of the "Proposing a New Project" section. Once this particular discussion winds up we will make our formal proposal to the announce at openjdk.java.net alias per Step 1. That starts a two week call for votes. Provided the voters are in favor we get started creating repos and filling them with code. So we're talking weeks not days.

Brian.

What´s the ETA for the above?. What´s holding up the "approval"?. I mean, is this a matter of days? weeks? hours?.

Thanks FC
