Short Biography

I am a long time (over 25 years) FLOSS advocate and Debian user, with some background in large scale deployments, SRE and DevOps things, and recently started to contribute to the Debian project.

I'm currently focusing on improving the state of the Java/JVM stacks in Debian, starting with packaging and upgrading build and development tools and their dependencies, among others: Gradle, Groovy, Kotlin, SBT, Android SDKs, the Debian Java plugins and helpers, IDEs ... I'm also planning to suggest and discuss some changes to the Debian Java policy and infrastructure.

My ongoing work on Gradle can be followed here: https://salsa.debian.org/jpd/gradle/-/blob/upgrade-to-8.11.1-wip/debian/wip/README.md
