I would like to propose a two-part agenda for today's call.

1. Agree on what our medium term goals are. For example:

• Creating a version 1.0 of the Spec Process document which focuses solely on the processes necessary for creating new specification in the jakarta namespace.

• Creating a draft Spec Process document for community feedback.

• ...others?

Create a v1.0 Spec Process that focuses on enabling new specifications

General consensus that this is useful approach.

Namespace discussion

David Blevins to document and invite others to provide feedback.

• Bill Shannon provided a document that he drafted in 2012 that discusses namespace and versioning issues https://javaee.github.io/glassfish/wiki-archive/Maven%20Versioning%20Rules.html

• David suggests that we switch to the ‘jakarta’ namespace as soon as possible.

• David suggests that we start using the ‘jakarta’ Maven groupid as soon as possible. Use of the groupid would be under the control of the Specification Committee.

• Discussion tabled for moment since the document was just distributed.

• In next week’s meeting, the Spec Committee will vote whether the adopt ‘jakarta’ as its namespace.

• Please review and comment, discussion on the next week
