EE4J PMC Meeting #2019-02

Date: 2019-01-29

Present:

NOTE That we now have a shared calendar.

The minutes from the last meeting with a couple of comments that were updated during the meeting.

Discussed the implications of a “split”. At the moment the TCK ships with a version of GlassFish. This needs to be further discussed with the Jakarta EE working group following the Jakarta EE 8 release.

Reviewed, discussed and updated the GitHub Issues, https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/ee4j/issues.

Congratulations! Eclipse GlassFish 5.1 is GA and Java EE 8 Compatible!

Released to Maven Central as well as https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j.glassfish/downloads

More information at https://eclipse.org/security

ACTION from the last meeting: Select a rep on the next meeting. Could be anyone, preferably a committer, from one of the member organizations with a security background. Kevin and Steve are looking in their organizations if there is anyone that could take this role.

Dmitry asked where to put this TCK, api, impl or new project?

The PMC suggested adding a repo for the TCK in the API project

Recommendations for how to work on the next version of GlassFish (e.g. branching strategy). Since we lack a final agreement on the use of javax.* namespace, the current structure should be kept (same branches) for the Jakarta EE 8 release of GlassFish. Same restrictions apply.

January 30th 11 AM EST. Open for everyone! The PMC will participate in the panel (Dmitry, Kevin, David, Dan, Ivar,…​).

Heiko Rupp will be moderating the panel.
