Hi,

Does EOL of Java 7 mean this mailing list and the hg repo won't be active
anymore?

Not necessarily. A future Project Lead may decide to continue to use this mailing list and this project's forests.

Are you still accepting contributions for OpenJDK7

No. The JDK 7 Project in OpenJDK has finished its work with the JDK 7 GA back in 2011.

If you mean this Project, then the answer is no, as well. This Project has accomplished what it set out to do in June 2011.

Current activity in this Project is focused on enabling a successful transition of Project Leads. A future Project Lead can set the technical direction anew and decide which contributions, if any, to accept.

- who can
contribute and what kinds of contributions are accepted?

In order to contribute to OpenJDK Projects, Contributors must meet the requirements outlined in the Bylaws: http://openjdk.java.net/bylaws#contributor .

The technical direction of a Project is set by its Project Lead. A future Project Lead will be able to set it - in the future. You'll need to come back and ask again then in order to understand what kinds of contributions would be acceptable then.

Linking vm...
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lstdc++
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

You're missing the C++ standard library.

What's a proper fix ?

Installing the C++ standard library, I assume. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13195110/usr-bin-ld-cannot-find-lstdc .
