About this episode

The episode celebrates six years of Foojay.io by exploring its impact on the Java community through interviews with various members.

Foojay.io, the website for the Friends of OpenJDK, is turning six years old. To celebrate, Frank Delporte headed to JCON in Cologne, Germany, and sat down with twelve members of the Java community to talk about what Foojay means to them, what they learn from each other, and how the community is evolving. Foojay is more than a blog. It is a Mastodon server, a Slack community, the Disco API, a book on sustainability, a podcast, and now an education catalog. Six years in, it is still growing, still community-driven, and still very much a place where anyone who works with Java is welcome. 00:00 Introduction 02:16 Sharat Chandar https://www.linkedin.com/in/sharatchander/ Java community and history What you can learn from conferences and articles 05:37 Markus Westergren https://www.linkedin.com/in/markuswestergren/ https://foojay.io/sustainability-for-java-developers/ https://foojay.io/today/join-slack-com-t-foojay-signup/ Book "Sustainability for Java Developers" How to "sustain yourself" in this strange-AI-changing-world 09:46 Iryna Dohndorf https://www.linkedin.com/in/iryna-dohndorf/ https://foojay.io/today/author/iryna-dohndorf/ Mentoring about sustainability as…
