As some of you might be aware,
Jakarta Config Creation Review was created recently by Dimtry (Thanks Dimtry!). The plan is to work with the MicroProfile Config team to define Jakarta Config to be included in Jakarta Core Profile.
The next step is to work out the content of Jakarta Config. From the recent survey done by Reza, it seems majority votes went to move MicroProfile Specs to Jakarta EE (see
here for the survey result blog written by Reza). The top 2 choices are either updating MicroProfile Namespace or keeping the existing MicroProfile namespace.
The community voice is very important to us, but I would also like to gather some consensus from Working group members to agree on the final direction as this impacts both MicroProfile and the Jakarta community. We need to agree on a solution working for both MicroProfile and Jakarta. With this, I would like to start the discussion of moving MicroProfile Config to Jakarta EE and rebrand to be Jakarta Config 1.0 without updating namespace and then the future development will evolve in Jakarta EE and any new classes and packages can still use org.eclipse.microprofile.*.
Here is the
proposal that Scott and I put together. Let's start this conversation on the mailing list first. If necessary, we can schedule a call to discuss further. Please share your thoughts here.
