Re: [jakarta.ee-community] Thoughts on JakartaEE

I have stopped doing these for years now. They do more harm than good and we can't blame the "other side" when they do the same things or worse. Live and let live.

I'm not sure I understand the need to constantly compare to Spring but when I see https://www.slideshare.net/EmilyJiang3/cloud-native-programming-model-comparison, there is a bunch of inappropriate comparisons or borderline wrong facts given. What's the end goal ? Inferring MP is a better Spring ? Fair enough but play on the unique MP strengths, not the features that have been commoditized for years now.

We use JakartaEE and we're happy to promote the spec but I'm not sure how it is productive to keep referring to the work we do in the way this slides deck does. We all just craft tools to help other craft products or tools as well, in the great scheme of things, none of us is really significant so lets not waste energy with this kind of stuff.  I happen to think all of our combined work benefits all the JVM.

Just my 2cts,

Thanks for pointing this out. The whole premise behind Jakarta EE was that it would become a more nimble, but still credible open standard. The same of course goes for the promise that Jakarta EE was to become a trusted standard for cloud native Java as a unifying and stabilizing element the same as Java EE had been for so many years for server side Java.

If the truth is that those stated objectives are no longer really honest, that is what we should be clear to consumers about and give them an informed choice of where they would like to place their continued trust.

Actually I guess that might change with Jakarta EE because it should not take 2 or 3 years any more between Jakarta EE updates even if it is only some spec.

Cen,

absolutely. I also consider Jakarta EE 8 as the stable base, the "boring OS" with less frequent releases.
For me MicroProfile is the reflection of current e.g. CNCF, also upcoming, standards with faster release cadence.

So far, I always used them together,

Seeing how successful MP has been so far, I wouldn't merge the projects but collaboration between projects to make specs more interop is welcome. Duplicating specs for roughly the same things would be the major fail.

I am not sure people would switch massively to JakartaEE for any reason but I do know existing developers will probably stay if platform feels alive which was not the case for the past few years. As an existing user I am more concerned about the state of some important reference implementations with long standing bugs which are an annoyance in day-to-day work. Looking at bugs.eclipse.org - Eclipselink for example screams of abandonware although now that all projects are on github contributing is thankfully much easier. I already had some positive experience contributing to upstream RI so that's feels good.
