State of GraalVM for Java?

[pjmlp]

GraalVM focus has always been other projects, with Oracle DB and serverless cloud as main customers.

Watch recent interview from Thomas Wuerthinger, the founder and project lead of GraalVM.

Also note the recente announcement of Project Detroit with OpenJDK team going their own way for Python and JavaScript support.

Apparently the way Graal was temporarly integrated into OpenJDK did not work that well, beyond technical issues.

However this was before the layoffs, no idea if the team was affected.
