Contributors and Fellow Committers,
in compliance with the EE4J PMC's recent PMC statement about initial EE4J project contributions (https://www.eclipse.org/ee4j/news/?date=2018-02-16) I just created the needed "Sandbox" branches as announced earlier this week:
· Branch 2.1.1-SNAPSHOT - Bug fixes and clarifications only. No feature changes. Must stay JAX-RS 2.1 compatible.
· Branch 2.2-SNAPSHOT - New features ontop of JAX-RS 2.1 / Java EE 8. Must stay backwards compatible to JAX-RS 2.1, hence only adds features but does not drop or change old ones. Deprecation of old features has to happen here.
· Branch 3-SNAPSHOT - Incompatible changes / feature removals only here.
· Tag initial-contribution - Oracle's initial contribution in case someone needs to look it up one day.
Please always discuss first in a Github issue.
Please do not directly commit to any branch, but always open a PR and let at least one other committer review your changes.
Please do not open a PR against branch master, but always open a PR against one of the above branches.
Looking forward to review your PRs! :-)
