Please take a look at my latest "Meet the Engineer" Q&A. Tom's job is to facilitate the growth of the OpenJDK community in an effort to promote Java technology ubiquity, compatibility, adoption, and innovation. He's busy serving as a bridge with the OpenJDK community by articulating the objectives of external developers to internal Sun teams,
and by explaining Sun's interests to the community.
If anyone has information that needs to go in either direction, pleaselet Tom know.
Tom has interesting things to say about the latest OpenJDK hacking, benchmarking, copyright law, and tae kwon do (he's a black belt candidate).
Open Source --- Then and Now

I'd be curious what you think of this java.sun.com interview I did with Ray Gans
titled "Open Source -- Then and Now: A Conversation With Ray Gans of the OpenJDK Community Program".
Ray's been about as close to Sun's open
source process as anyone over the years and has a long history
working with Java compatibility and now manages the OpenJDK and
Mobile and Embedded community programs. I found his
perspectives interesting with regard to the evolution of open
source at Sun, the challenges currently
faced, the surprises, and where it is all headed.
What do you think?
