Kevin/all,
I wonder, if this PR I created to solve the remaining issue of Jakarta Annotations and modularity: https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/common-annotations-api/pull/79 also has to wait till the ballot?
Werner
Ed,
The PRs are not merged until the ballots are completed. At this point, if you are happy with the PRs and feel they are ready for ballot, then you should mark the PRs are "Approved" (from a Review standpoint). That should be the indication that a Spec Committee member has done due diligence on reviewing the PRs and they are now ready for ballot.
Once the ballots are initiated, then the vote is open for two weeks. Once the ballot is approved, then we have another checklist to perform post ballot, which can be found here: https://github.com/jakartaee/specification-committee/blob/master/spec_finalization_checklist.md
All of the items in the _index.md files should be in their expected final form/location. The keys should not change just because they are promoted (that's what we determined for Jakarta EE 8).
Hope this helps!
BTW, most/all of this is documented in our Operations Guide: https://jakarta.ee/committees/specification/operations/
If this needs some updates and clarifications, please submit PRs to make the instructions better. Thanks!

I believe the Dependency Injection Spec. is ready to go (PR 221). (it's probably been ready to go for several days now, but I've been looking at other things :-( ). The TCK needs to be moved to the final download location and the SHA and PUB key files need to be created.
How are these created?
As the mentor, do something to create these? Do I click the "Merge" button on the PR? Who updates those final three links (TCK d/l, SHA255 file, and Pub. Key file)? I can predict the links, so I conceivably could just request the changes -- then, who pushes the button to promote the TCK and generate the actual files?
the state location for the TCK is: https://download.eclipse.org/ee4j/cdi/inject/2.0/jakarta.inject-tck-2.0.1-bin.zip
From that, I think the finals are:
Thanks,
