David suggested automating the creation of boilerplate specifications. Volunteered to create a descriptor file for spec projects to use for scripting and a script to generate PRs in the spec repos for boilerplate specs.
The skeleton spec documents are a requirement for the Jakarta EE 8 release! Suggestion to shorten the review period for the specs in order to be able to make it. Will bring it to the specification committee.
Licenses
Should everything in a github repo have the same license? In the spec folder, there is a different license, pom.xml and project itself. What is the right approach? Dmitry posts on the pmc list.
Question for Wayne for clarification.
Generally yes. It’s just generally better for consumers of content to have everything under as uniform a license as possible.
But it is common for examples or configuration to be under a EDL, for example.
Why are there different licenses? The source for the specification document should be under the project license (the distribution form of the document in the Final Specification will be under the EFSL).
Versioning
Planning to release spec using the same version number. API jars have different versions.
Discussed wheter the PMC shouold recommend anything, e.g.:
-
Spec+API have same version
-
Umbrella spec ref other specs by major.minor
-
patch/service releases may never change the api
