Hi Lukas/Charlie, Basically we're trying to get more people involved in the OpenJDK as well as helping projects like coroutines get into a good shape for possible inclusion into the OpenJDK. This includes helping out with JEP and JSR processes as a project matures.
In this case I think the suitable thing to do would be to coordinate work around your existing patch via some sort of OSS project and look at all of the aspects that would need to be covered in order for it to be accepted into the OpenJDK. For example, a lot of thought will need to go into the impact on with existing and future concurrency capabilities and it would be good to plan lots of empirical testing against a large corpus of existing code. Once that project is well underway, the next step would probably be to raise a JEP under the OpenJDK process (See http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/0). I think you would only raise a JSR once there was general consensus for coroutines to go in and resources were committed. So first step is to create an OSS project around your patch, which we can discuss on your co_jsr mailing list. I'll kick off a thread there.
