David (and PMC):
(Jumping in because Dmitry is on holiday.)
I believe that these are the "equivalence" releases for Eclipse
GlassFish 5.1. The goal with this first set of Eclipse Jakarta EE
components is that they have exactly the same API compatibility as
those used in GlassFish 5.0 (i.e. both are Java EE 8 compatible).
Since they will be tested and certified for compatibility, I
believe that this is fully in compliance with the terms of the TCK
agreements that are to be signed. Further, I think this is within
the scope of agreements already in place since no specified APIs
are changed.
I have asked Oracle developers to perform TCK verification for
any components ready for Eclipse Release Review before the TCK
agreement with Eclipse Foundation is signed. The TCK agreement
must be finished before we can finalize Eclipse GlassFish 5.1 and
use any Java EE branding. We are working to complete that
discussion.
Once the agreement is in place, we can do this compatibility
testing on Eclipse resources.
I thought that we'd discussed this at Steering Committee, but
perhaps not clearly enough. I'd be happy to answer additional
questions, here in e-mail, or at the meeting.
Cheers,

It's a tough one. My understanding of where we're at is that
releasing code under the javax namespace will break the temporary
contracts in place that explicitly forbid it. Our chances of
getting the contracts we want will likely not increase if we break
the ones already made. If Dmitry is asking for a release, then
I'm out of the loop.
It's a good thread and I'm also interested in how
this goes.

Hello PMC,
the JAX-RS
API team is currently preparing release 2.1.1 (i. e.
EE4J_8). We do not have received neither TCK nor spec.
We do not have an ageement with Oracle. We just have
the API itself (Java source code). Dmitry filed an
issue requesting an initial release. So does the PMC
want us to…
…release
immediately even without TCK and spec?
…wait
until all of that is here and release then?
…something
else…?
Thanks
-Markus
