Re: [jakarta.ee-spec.committee] minimum review period for IP lock in
|
I would like to hear from other companies involved here as to whether
they agree that 30 days is the minimal acceptable number. Both in
general, and for Jakarta EE.

We've talked previously about the minimum review period for reviews

legal to review such specifications.
I had a conversation with Oracle legal today and we talked about this
issue. It is Oracle's position that the minimum review period must be
no less than 30 days. Oracle will not participate in a specification
process where the review period that locks in IP contributions is less
than 30 days.
Ideally the EFSP would specify 30 days as a minimum, to ensure that Oracle
could participate in all Eclipse specification processes derived from the
EFSP, but at the very least the JESP needs to specify this minimum.
It would be interesting to hear what other corporations consider an
adequate review period.
Separately, Oracle is having discussions with the Eclipse IP advisory
committee about how exactly this IP lock in occurs, and how exactly one
could choose to withdraw from a group to avoid IP lock in. We expect
this issue to be resolved at an Eclipse board meeting in the next month
or two.
