I had the opportunity to meet with Georges Sabb, V.P. Software Development, Java Platform Group; Donald Smith, Sr. Director Product Management; Sharat Chander, Sr. Director Java Product Management and Developer Relations; Chad Arimura, V.P. Developer Relations, all with Oracle, and Aimee Lucido, Java Engineer, and author of Emmy in the Key of Code, following the announcement of the general availability of Java SE 13 (JDK 13) as part of the six-month feature release cadence.
After four-plus years of trying to get Oracle to provide insights for the Java Research Guides I've been conducting for DZone.com, I was pleased that they want to reengage with the developer community.
