[jakarta.ee-spec.committee] First pass at EFSP 1.2

[Wayne Beaton <wayne.beaton@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings Specification Committee.

I've made my first pass at updating the EFSP to incorporate the changes that we've discussed (plus one other, I believe).

The changes are described here.

The short version is that the new version:

• Makes the Progress Review requirement time based. Basically, a project needs to engage in a Review every 12 months. A Progress Review extends a Release Cycle; a Release Review ends it.
• Specifies that a ballot requires 14 days by default and must not be less than 7 days.
• Describes a formal exception process.

I'll update the corresponding issues tomorrow. While "putting pen to paper", additional constraints presented themselves...

Your feedback, even just initial observations are welcome.

I will take another pass tomorrow and send you an update.

Thanks,

Wayne
