In that sense, maybe the diagram could have been the other way round, but the IP/Legal committee should be next to the "Eclipse Foundation" block.

IMHO;
Jakarta EE Working Group governs the Jakarta EE brand and what can be called Jakarta EE.
The working group consists of committees, the "brand" as such is more relevant to the Marketing Committee, of course it needs to back its assertions on what the Specification Committee defines and considers compatible or not.
Nice graph, although I would say the arrow between Jakarta EE and MicroProfile is clearly bi-directional. MicroProfile consumes much (especially CDI, JAX-RS or JSON-related standards, a list that grows with every update) and only Configuration can be seen as an outside standard (so far I would put it right next to the 3 green ones on the left because it is not part of Jakarta EE or EE4J right now either.

Subject: Re: [jakarta.ee-community] Am i right with the representation in the diagram?
Being in the Specification Committee I know, the term "Reference Implementation" is disregarded in favor of "Specification Implementation". It is still a standard implementation by Eclipse Foundation projects (or some could also be elsewhere
e.g. at Apache Foundation) but not a Reference Implementation in JCP terms.
There is also at least an IP/legal Committee which currently has a hard time in certain terms of legal questions like opening up the TCK, etc.
This has always been a bit confusing. However, I would say that the Jakarta EE Working Group governs the platform and its specification/api projects. The EE4J governs the reference implementations (e.g. Glassfish) under its umbrella (some
are not owned by eclipse). And the PMC governs the EE4J. As to weather or not the PMC governs the Jakarta EE Working Group has never been entirely clear to me since the PMC formed it.
Also missing are the Jakarta EE Specification Committee and Jakarta EE Marketing Committee which are themselves managed by the Jakarta EE Steering Committee which none of which is really managed by the PMC as they are industry groups.
