The Death of Apache Harmony

leave a comment »

I was hoping to make some contributions to the Java 2D Graphics code in the Apache Harmony Project. To my disappointment, the project was killed by Apache recently. A vote was held on the death of the project a couple of weeks ago. You can read about the vote and the resulting decision to kill the Apache Harmony project in this short article from ADT Magazine.

I poked around the net looking for another open source Java runtime platform I could contribute to. It looks like the only thing that is alive now is the OpenJDK project.
