OpenJDKProjekts

OpenJDKProjekts is a hypothetical umbrella initiative within the OpenJDK ecosystem intended to coordinate and host a collection of OpenJDK-related efforts. It is not an official project of the OpenJDK Governing Board, and there is no formal status in the OpenJDK project hierarchy. In this concept, OpenJDKProjekts serves as a centralized namespace and coordination layer for documentation, education, tooling, and community contributions that touch multiple OpenJDK components.

The scope typically includes centralized documentation portals, Java SE migration and upgrade guides, tutorials and example applications, sample code repositories, testing and build tooling, and packaging resources that apply across different JDK implementations. It aims to improve discoverability and reduce duplication by providing shared guidelines, templates, and standards for contribution, testing, and release planning. Activities would be conducted through public mailing lists, issue trackers, and continuous integration pipelines to validate changes across subprojects.

Governance in this concept is community-driven, emphasizing merit-based maintainership, transparent decision-making, and adherence to an open-source license compatible with the OpenJDK ecosystem. A code of conduct and clear contribution guidelines would be established to promote inclusive collaboration and high-quality contributions. The umbrella model would encourage collaboration with existing OpenJDK projects while maintaining separation to avoid conflicts with official governance.

Relation to OpenJDK: OpenJDKProjekts would align with OpenJDK principles—openness, collaboration, and cross-implementation compatibility—without replacing or duplicating official governance. It would act as a facilitator for sharing resources, consolidating best practices, and enabling educational and outreach initiatives within the broader OpenJDK community.
