Re: [jakarta.ee-community] Guide to Contributing to Jakarta EE 10

Looping in the Jakarta EE Ambassadors Google Group as well. Would love to hear a few more opinions on this, especially from folks that would like to be more deeply engaged but are not today.

Hi Reza,

I believe there was a thread started recently on this topic. And if memory serves me correctly, the conclusion was that we keep the email list for global communication, consideration and decision.

Usage of other means like The Slack groups that are available, are usable for quick questions and collaboration, and small talk.

So I think your description is accurate. I was one of the people involved in the conversation and this way of working is fine with me until better ideas are presented.

An interesting consideration came up in the context of the guide that I believe I have clarity on, but it feels l like I should confirm.

For Jakarta EE and indeed for the Eclipse Foundation generally, project mailing lists appear to be the canonical communication mechanism. This means that we should all be at least making a good faith effort to centralize substantive discussions and decision making in the mailing lists.

This certainly seems sensible to me as a way of maximizing transparency and inclusion, especially for folks that may have limited time and engagement at any given moment. Now, of course it is understandable that some discussion organically happens in places like GitHub issues, Slack channels, etc as long as we remain consious of trying not to replace a more inclusive communication mechanism instead of sensibly supplementing it.

Could the right folks kindly clarify (e.g. Wayne, Mike, Tanja, Ivar)? Also, what do folks here think - especially folks that are not heavily engaged today but could be in the future? What works best for you in terms of inclusion and transparency in the likely limited time you have?

It would be good to have clarity so we can bake in clarity and simplicity into the guide. I think that helps everyone in the end.

The first draft is now complete, could folks kindly take a look:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uZFBoIujXCc-gQhCzh_ZdlKEsrsV0yVVIHzBTI3usF8/edit?usp=sharing?

Obviously there are a lot of possible things across the platform and
ecosystem, but I do believe it is best to focus on a simple, brief,
end-user focused and mostly self-contained resource (to be ultimately
part of the Jakarta EE Ambassadors website).

If possible, I would like to finalize this by next weekend.
