Java 22 Launch Stream

Java 22 was released on March 19th, 2024. We celebrated that on the Java YouTube channel, where we hosted a 5-hour live stream covering the launch of Java 22 as well as community updates and what to expect from future releases.

We had presentations from exciting guests like Chief Java Language Architect Brian Goetz, JVM Architect John Rose, Ron Pressler, Viktor Klang, and more. Our lovely hosts Ana-Maria Mihalceanu, Billy Korando, and Nicolai Parlog led through the event.
