I want to help with the JDK 8 effort in JDT, and as you've seen, I've started submitting patches for the lambda stuff.
However, before I go any further, I need to know when/if you are going to be either reviewing or accepting the patches, so I don't waste your time if I'm doing it totally wrong.
Another thing is how to organize the contributions. With new, big functionality such as this, the 250 line limit per patch is going to be really tough to deal with, so I've set up a fork on GitHub, for my own sanity.
I'll still be posting my progress as patches in Bugzilla, and if I end up implementing some stuff you can use, I assume I could take the changes from the GitHub fork, turn them into one big patch, upload that to Bugzilla and send it through the Contribution Questionnaire.
So, please advise: Should I wait - or continue?
