Welcome to the 2021 Java Advent Request for Papers.

Java Advent is a place to make the Advent a little more fun for JVM enthusiasts. We are looking for fresh content, you publish on Java Advent first. As always, you are and always will be the author - your name goes with the article, and you can republish where and how often you wish.

The schedule looks like this:
This RfP will stay open until early October. We will let you know very soon, whether your entry got accepted.
Then, you have until November 17th to write the article. After that date, we will let you know, when your article will go live. Then we take over and set everything up for the Advent season (December 1st - December 24th).

To make this even more tempting: Thanks to JetBrains, we have two IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate licences to raffle for all authors.
