This Inside Java Podcast takes a meta approach. Instead of focusing on specific features, it explores the bigger picture: What are the right problems for Java to tackle? What are the current and future challenges for the Java platform? Why is predictability so important for Java, and what's driving the recent focus on learners and students?

Nicolai Parlog discusses these topics with Georges Saab, Senior Vice President of the Java Platform Group and Chair of the OpenJDK Governing Board.
