Just for completeness, I believe what is today REST client and Open API had also been discussed in the former JAX-RS expert group. That's no surprise as these features are so close to the REST domain. I do agree that Emily's proposal does solve some thorny issues by moving things from one working group to another as things mature, namely keeping dependencies flowing in one (IMHO logical) direction, making it a tad easier to understand the guarantees/focus a given working group has and making Jakarta EE specific integrations a lot easier.

Yes, and no. Yes, of course it's a past statement, but it does show that if these specs were planned to be in Java EE 8, they are a natural fit for Jakarta. It's not some wish that came around later. Config, Health, Metrics, Fault Tolerance and JWT among others were all planned for Jakarta EE. The first 4 were not done since at the time the issues at Oracle started, and essentially MicroProfile was created as an alternative. JWT was not included since I simply ran out of time for Security 1.0 (both OAuth and JWT were planned for 1.0). Then the entire transition to Eclipse happened, and in the meanwhile MP "hijacked" JWT (hijacked with a big ;)). So it's no use to cry about spilled milk; what's done is done, but to reiterate, it's an explanation why Jakarta EE has a need/desire for those things.
That would be my second choice, not so pretty, but I could live with it. Kind regards, Arjan
