Id like to help clear the encumbrances in the OpenJDK code base, or improve the quality and performance of the replacement code already contributed to the project. How do I get started?

We’ve opened sub-projects under the OpenJDK project focused on the major encumbrances that need to be addressed so that OpenJDK can be 100% free software, with very high quality. These projects and their URLs are: • Java 2D Font Rasterizer • Sound Engine Each of these projects includes a mailing list with Sun engineers participating, and additional information on the specifications and requirements for a replacement implementation that would pass the JCK and be a suitable replacement for the encumbered code. Working on creating or improving the Free software replacements for these encumbered pieces is one of the most valuable initial contributions you could make, so please consider joining these projects and helping make OpenJDK completely free software.
