Abstract: The IBM open source organization, “zopen community”, hosts a collection of Linux tools that are ported to z/OS Unix System Services. A recent addition to the collection is Google’s Chromium V8 JavaScript engine and supporting tools. Successfully porting the engine and tools required a collaborative effort between Broadcom and IBM. Ongoing efforts to upstream the work to Google are in progress. Additional work needs to be done to complete the port – not all features work to the same degree as on other platforms. This joint talk with Igor Todorovski of IBM is to publicize the effort and seek contributions from other developers. This is an opportunity to contribute to open source projects that benefit the whole zopen community and USS community.
