Re: [jakarta.ee-community] Fork Eclipse MicroProfile Configuration as Ja

[Ed Bratt <ed.bratt@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Werner,

'jakarta' as a namespace replacing 'javax' was approved when the Jakarta EE Specification Process 1.2 was adopted. This happened as follows:

• The specific language was proposed in the Spec. committee. There were a few other changes in this JESP update as well.
  
• The Jakarta EE Spec. Committee adopted the Jakarta EE Specification Process v 1.2. This was done by public ballot taken over two weeks and was closed July 15, 2019. Here is notification of the results.
  
• The Steering Committee ratified it unanimously on July 16 (Minutes of July 16 Steering Committee meeting).

The JESP document itself lives at GitHub, here and you can look at PRs if you want to see the evolution.

I believe, the Spec. committee is responsible for this text. Steering committee has oversight authority.

There was lots of activity at this time as we were preparing everything for the Jakarta EE 8 release in Sept.

I don't recall that the namespace question was answered explicitly by a vote either by mail or in a call (if so, please point us to the archive;-)

Now that every relevant Jakarta EE 9 spec was renamed to "jakarta" and there's a clean slate, we must ask if we are willing to "pollute" that by adding new packages and modules (it's not just the Java package name, there are plenty of other elements like schema etc.) in future versions that are not "jakarta" but something else, at least anything under "org.eclipse" I would guess.

the MP and Jakarta communities.

It seems whatever could have been tried there has already been done and now we need to focus mostly on what is right for Jakarta EE? The second is that there was apparently already some conversation that took part on the MicroProfile side as to what would happen on the Jakarta EE side once the pull vote was made that is apparently being now completely disregarded?
