Thanks Ed that makes sense.
Does the platform project own that responsibility?
https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j.jakartaee-platform along with the TCK project

Subject: Re: [glassfish-dev] Jakarta EE 8 GlassFish 5.1 or GlassFish 5.2
Sorry Steve. I did not intend to bring releasing a new version of GlassFish to question. I do believe we can accomplish the Jakarta EE release goals without a new version of Eclipse GlassFish.
While we have said, we don't intend to create a new GlassFish release, there appear to be additional artifacts that we think will be required, across the projects -- these include revised JavaDocs, possibly revised API JAR files.
Maybe other component elements.
A plan/recipe for each project needs to be worked out. Overall, that's not the GlassFish project lead's responsibility, but I don't know whose it is.
In addition the new TCKs must be delivered -- currently, that delivery includes a copy of GlassFish since that's the only currently known compatible implementation that we have to work with.
All this needs to be pulled together -- in general, this is for the Jakarta EE 8 project. Of which, the GlassFish project deliverable (new version or old) is but one part -- Each of the component projects may also have some work
to do.
There isn't a firmly established home for the overall deliverables and I don't know where these discussions are supposed to take place.

All,
I am now confused. Recently I created a release for GlassFish 5.2 stating it targeted Jakarta EE 8 certification. In the working group meeting it was suggested that the goal would be to certify Eclipse GlassFish
5.1 as both Java EE 8 and Jakarta EE 8. I therefore deleted the release on the project.
So what’s the consensus on which version will be Jakarta EE 8 compatible?
Steve
