HOW THE JAVA CHAMPIONS ARE
NOMINATED BY THE JAVA CHAMPIONS
SELECTION COMMITTEE : When started the
process (Jun ’06), Initially they looked around
within the Java Community for leaders in the
various parts of the Java Eco-System (like JUG
leaders, authors, trainers, professors,
researchers, etc.). From there the program grew
into a “community nomination” process,
which is unique, and have a real strength. The
community itself nominates most nominees and
selects the new Java Champions through a peer
review process. The criteria used in the peer
review have been listed above as the (5)
Principles.
COMMUNITY SIZE? - Currently, there are
about 85 Java Champions around the world,
with another 20 or so in the selection process
queue. Once they get up to 100 or more then
they will evaluate the issue like how many more
would be appropriate for the program. The idea
is always to build a community of Java
Champions that reflects the top echelon of
contributors to the Java Community.
HOW DO THEY NOMINATE A JAVA
CHAMPION? - If someone influential (in their
Java Community and/or is an advocate for the
Java platform or Java tools) is known to you
then please nominate him by sending an email
to the Java Champions selection committee
with the following information:

Sun’s goal for the Java Champions project is
to build a community of representative Java
leaders with whom Sun could have
conversations with about the state of the Java
Platform. Sun Microsystems sponsors this
project through certain administative functions,
but the community is free to elect its own
members. Sun’s engineers are also articipating
in dialogues with the Java Champions through
the project’s private mailing lists. |
