I don't find that to be a very constructive comment given that
you haven't even heard what our concerns are. And the issues that
we are seeing are not going to go away if it's hosted somewhere
else. Success comes with greater responsibilities.
Plus, as Steve pointed out we already have an example of a
MicroProfile spec entering the JCP process. So there is already an
entirely community-led precedent to follow.
Perhaps we should down tools on the email and discuss this in
real time in January.

Scott, et al,
I guess I was being too subtle in my previous email on
this thread. In our opinion, simply maintaining the status
quo is not an option. Adoption of the EFSP by MicroProfile
is a question of when, not if.
The existing specification process and licensing regime
for MicroProfile is causing the Eclipse Foundation serious
concerns. We do not feel that the status quo is an
acceptable long term scenario. This is the result of both
the success in the industry that the specifications are
achieving, and what we have learned as an institution as
we created the EFSP.
Happy to explain more details on a call.
