Why is it "incompatible" if there is a new "sub-package" like  "javax.ws.rs-api.xxx" added alongside the existing ones?   From: ee4j-pmc-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ee4j-pmc-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Bill Shannon Sent: Donnerstag, 4. April 2019 20:26 To: EE4J PMC Discussions; Ivar Grimstad Subject: Re: [ee4j-pmc] Updated PMC Statement for work on Jakarta EE Specification Projects   Yes, anything that would make it incompatible with the corresponding Java EE specification. Ivar Grimstad wrote on 4/4/19 10:21 AM: Somebody will probably correct me here, but my understanding of "change" in this context is:    - adding/removing or changing signatures of exposed methods in existing classes/interfaces - adding/removing packages I guess, anything except fixing bugs at this point.   I don't want to be nitpicking but if you want to make it bullet-proof you need to declare what "change" means. -Markus       A little clarification. See inlined below.   We have updated the PMC statement regarding work on the Jakarta EE Specification projects. - Must be able to release a Jakarta EE 8 artifact (minimal changes from the previous release)  - Must be able to merge the Jakarta EE 8 related changes into the master branch after release - Must NOT publicly publish SNAPSHOTs or other releases that include the javax.* namespace (yet) 
  - Must NOT publicly publish SNAPSHOTs or releases that change the javax.* namespace. Apart from the above, the development of new features is good to go!
