This is part 2 of the interviews we recorded at the JCON conference earlier this month in Germany. In this episode, you get two main topics: **Maven and Code Quality**.
In the first part, you'll hear Karl Heinz Marbaise and Steve Poole discuss the Maven project, the repository, Sonaytype, and the security impact of dependencies.
But next to security, we developers are also responsible for creating readable and maintainable code. Miro Wengner, Marit van Dijk, and Hinse ter Schuur dive into this topic, in the second part!
