What is the JVM Language Summit?
The JVM Language Summit is a conference for VM implementers to get together and talk about (amongst other things) the latest JVM optimizations for Java and other programming languages. The conference is typically a small affair as it’s a chance for experts to get together to share their knowledge, talk about what they are working on and discuss future directions of VMs and languages.
