Platform Project to assess where things are at with the CDI Restructuring Review.
Resolution: The Jakarta EE Specification Committee would like to thank Scott Stark and his alternate Scott Marlow from Red Hat for their service over the past year on the committee; their contributions were of benefit to all projects and the Jakarta EE releases. The committee looks forward to our continued collaboration.
This resolution was unanimously supported by the Specification Committee
Ed Burns reported that materials for EE 11 Milestone 1 have been delivered for the Annotation and Data specifications. Milestone 1 target date 11/28, date for component specs to hand-off their artifacts to the Platform project.
Ongoing work on and resolve Specification Committee’s process enhancements items including those identified in the Jakarta EE 10 retrospective:
Recommendation: Like MicroProfile, include the EMO Release Review in the Jakarta EE (JESP) Release Review template. Talk to Maria Teresa and do for Jakarta EE what she is doing for MicroProfile to embed the EMO’s CR template
Add Core Profile to compatible products definition on the JAKARTA EE COMPATIBLE IMPLEMENTATIONS AND COMPATIBLE PRODUCTS page. A PR with the required update was created by Kenji (Thanks!). EF to review and approve the PR. See issue https://github.com/jakartaee/specification-committee/issues/75 and https://github.com/jakartaee/jakarta.ee/pull/1735
Can optional tests be updated in a Service Release? See the TCK Process 2nd paragraph in How Tests May be Added or Changed in a TCK
Currently this is not a problem (or need) for Jakarta EE, it is however a real situation w/ MicroProfile. Recommendation is to discuss and work out a proposal within the MicroProfile project and keep the Jakarta EE Specification Committee updated.
