I think a lot of concrete issues were discussed 2 months ago: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/gb-discuss/2011-February/date.html But to summarize in concrete actionable items wrt the board and governance: - Get rid of the SCA. Commit to using the GPL for everything. People should be able to be members of the community without having to assign all their rights on non-reciprocal terms to Oracle. - Don't tie OpenJDK work to the JCP/JSRs as long as those use terms which are community-hostile/GPL-incompatible. - Create a board without non-OpenJDK hackers or appointed seats. - Make the infrastructure open to the community instead of company controlled. - Keep communicating openly instead of hiding for months and then publishing declarations. Cheers, Mark
