2023 Community Survey
June 06, 2023 Foojay Friends of OpenJDK Survey kickoffAuthor(s)
Here’s the idea.
A survey that allows the community to ask the questions they want, including (shock horror) occasional commercial ones.
Often, when a survey's results are released, the reader is left wanting more, experiencing that perennial "yes but" moment. Typically, the survey data is hidden and unavailable for analysis, and the desired follow-up questions or clarifications are not addressed.
The Foojay survey breaks this pattern. We will make all the data available, within the bounds of GDPR, and you will have the opportunity to propose the questions that should be included. The Foojay Board also has the chance to propose their own questions.
The result will be a survey where the friends of OpenJDK ask themselves the burning questions that other surveys overlook, although some of the the usual ones will probably sneak in!

Book Review: “Help Your Boss Help You”
Some books were written to be read once and put aside, others to be read thoroughly several times and then to be placed behind glass to be broken in case of emergency.
This book is of the latter kind—once you’ve read through it a few times, and dipped into the areas that speak to you most, you want to have it nearby both as a PDF and in hard copy format—as a backup just in case you can’t find that PDF at the crucial moment when you really need to have a response at hand in times of crisis.
