Re: [ejb-dev] Removal of tests for pruned technologies versus making tes

[Scott Marlow <smarlow@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I started to document the Jakarta TCK rules [1] for removing TCK tests 
for removed technologies (like tests that specifically use Corba or the 
Corba IIOP protocol) and also for tests that use DTDs/Schemas older than 
EE 8.

I think it will help for EE 9 to have consistent rules that we follow 
for $subject.  Feedback on [1] is welcome before it is merged into the 
Platform TCK documentation (perhaps via github pages or wiki).
