Re: [jakartaee-platform-dev] [External] : Release plan revisions to mitigate impact of gh-platform-820 and preserve June/July delivery of EE 11 
Hi,

      o *Component spec TCKs and platform TCK must compile under 17*.
Does this mean that Java SE 17 must be used for build OR does this mean that the compiler must be set to use '--release 17' flag? 

thanks,
--lukas




      o *A compatible component impl must pass their component TCK when
        run under 17 and also 21.*
      o *A compatible platform impl must pass the platform TCK when run
        under 17 and also 21.*
  * Platform project adjusts "release review" targets for component
    specs: *move "release review" targets all out by one month* relative
    to the schedule sent to Spec Project Leads on 2023-12-13

      o Wave 1, 2, 3, 4 specs release review by 2024-02-29
      o M2 release
      o Wave 5 specs release review by 2024-03-29
      o M3 release
      o Wave 6, 7 specs release review by 2024-04-27
      o M4 release

  * The key condition to make this plan possible: the GlassFish
    community is willing and able to deliver an implementation of EE 11
    compiled under 17, but passing the platform TCK under 17 and also
    21. *The release coordinators expect more community involvement on
    the Jakarta Data implementation for GlassFish, especially from Red
    Hat, to achieve this goal.*

*Details*
On 2023-12-20, Red Hat opened gh-platform-820 <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/jakartaee/platform/issues/820__;!!ACWV5N9M2RV99hQ!PKorn7h1TiIZpFUJOb7mW2FA43An6xf0yzgdJE79RdF-rNx8RQexSrZJ7xMP-SGb6ff7hNuesvvZ1Ha4Fmd6JSD0wJXqlWNT$>. This issue requests, "there still must be support for Java SE 17 as a valid runtime for certification." We spent the 2024-01-09 platform project call discussing this issue. Since then, the release coordinators have been working to revise the release plan to accommodate this request, while preserving the delivery schedule and maintaining buy-in from implementation vendors.
We believe the revised plan achieves this objective. We ask you to read it and understand it carefully. If you think it's unachievable, now is the best time to say it.
We will discuss this tomorrow. We aim to modify the Jakarta EE 11 Release Plan <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://jakartaee.github.io/platform/jakartaee11/JakartaEE11ReleasePlan__;!!ACWV5N9M2RV99hQ!PKorn7h1TiIZpFUJOb7mW2FA43An6xf0yzgdJE79RdF-rNx8RQexSrZJ7xMP-SGb6ff7hNuesvvZ1Ha4Fmd6JSD0wAYwAzzs$> right after the meeting and convey the changes to the spec and steering committees. 

Thanks,

Ed and Arjan
P.S. The long-standing policy of considering specification binaries, in maven central or anywhere else, as a non-normative convenience remains unchanged. The platform project is silent on this matter. But because the platform project *does* mandate a specific JDK requirement for compatible implementations passing the component or platform TCK, specification binaries are practically constrained to follow that mandate.
