Scott to follow-up with the EMO regarding a restructuring review.
The Jakarta EE Versioning, Change, and Deprecation Process was finalized and ballot concluded successfully [See https://www.eclipse.org/lists/jakarta.ee-spec.committee/msg03417.html]
Next steps:
Refer process to the Steering Committee for ratification
Update the website with the new document
Need to determine where best to link this revised process which is wider in scope, suggestion is to put it on https://jakarta.ee/committees/specification/, also then send an email to the Spec Discussions mailing list.
[10/04] The Steering Committee has been informed, the document can be posted to https://jakarta.ee/committees/specification/, is there a volunteer? Andrew to create a PR and Eclipse WebDev can approve [https://github.com/jakartaee/jakarta.ee/tree/src/content/committees/specification]
Ideas to communicate:
Send an email to the public spec discussion mailing list to let spec leaders know
Q&A or FAQ to accompany the process
A presentation at JakartaOne Livestream in December? Audience of the document is mainly the spec projects. Could be a good one to add to an existing talk or segment? Explain implications to application developers.
