Hello Mark, This is fantastic! Somebody from the Porter Group needs to decide if they want to sponsor you as a member, but as a general rule [1]: """ A Group Member is a Contributor who has demonstrated a history of significant contributions to a Group and, as a result, has been granted Membership in that Group. A Member of a Group has write access to the Group’s web content and file repositories. """ I would suggest to first start rolling out patches, you don't need to be part of any group to do that and it will make escalating the membership privileges much easier. Of course, we love participation, if you have any questions, or if you need any help, the best place to start is to ask to the Adoption Group: http://openjdk.java.net/groups/adoption/ Cheers, Mario [1] http://openjdk.java.net/bylaws#group -- pgp key: http://subkeys.pgp.net/ PGP Key ID: 80F240CF Fingerprint: BA39 9666 94EC 8B73 27FA FC7C 4086 63E3 80F2 40CF Java Champion - Blog: http://neugens.wordpress.com - Twitter: @neugens Proud GNU Classpath developer: http://www.classpath.org/ OpenJDK: http://openjdk.java.net/projects/caciocavallo/ Please, support open standards: http://endsoftpatents.org/
