GEEKS RIDE ONThe Geek Bike Ride tradi-tion continued at JavaOne with 35 riders from nine countries. Riders sported jerseys designed by com-munity members in Brazil and enjoyed a sunny day of heart-pumping activity.

The Java Community Process (JCP) presented the 10th annual JCP Awards and celebrated its 15th birthday at a gather-ing atop the Hilton Hotel on Monday night.

Heather VanCura received the award for JCP Program Member of the Year for her leadership in the Adopt-a-JSR program, which provides a mecha-nism for Java user groups (JUGs) and individuals to easily contribute to JSRs and encourages grassroots participation in crafting the future of Java.

The Most Significant JSR was awarded to JSR 360, Connected Limited Device Configuration (CLDC) 8,

which brings language features, including generics, enumerations, and try-with-resources, from Java SE into Java ME. Michael Lagally was recognized as Outstanding Spec Lead for his efforts in spearheading JSR 360.

Otávio Gonçalves de Santana was awarded Outstanding Adopt-a-JSR Participant for his work on JSR 354, Java Money and Concurrency—specifically in migrating the codebase from Java 7 to Java 8.
