wrote:Greetings Specification Committee...Here is the first round of conversions
from regular Eclipse Projects into Specification Projects. I've grouped
five projects into this first Restructuring Review. The purpose of a Restructuring Review
is to change the nature of a project. Since the Eclipse Foundation Specification
Process (EFSP) does not specifically deal with the notion of restructuring,
I'm following the Eclipse Development Process (EDP). While we are not strictly
creating a new project, we are in a manner of thinking, creating new Specification
Projects from the existing ones. With this in mind, I am treating this
as a Creation Review from the perspective of the Specification Committee
approval requirement. I have created a Restructuring
Review record that provides
the high level details of the intention. I've pasted it below for your
quick review and for posterity. In all cases, I've included the scope statement
for the specification itself; the specification project's scope will be
to "provide the specification document and supporting technical artifacts"
for the corresponding specification.The review documentation includes links
to GitHub Issues that provide more details regarding what will change.
In the case of "Eclipse Project for JAX-RS", for example, we
are compelled to change the project id and the name of the GitHub repository
to avoid names that Oracle lays claim to.Here is the project list:Eclipse
Project for JAX-RS will
be renamed to "Jakarta RESTful Web Services" with the following
specification scope:
Jakarta
RESTful Web Services defines a standard for development of web services
following the Representational State Transfer (REST) architectural pattern.
Eclipse
Project for JSON Processing will
be renamed "Jakarta JSON Processing" with the following specification
scope:
Jakarta
JSON Processing defines a Java(R) based framework for parsing, generating,
transforming, and querying JSON documents.
Eclipse
Project for JAF will
be renamed "Jakarta Activation" with the following specification
scope:
Jakarta
Activation defines a set of standard services to: determine the MIME type
of an arbitrary piece of data; encapsulate access to it; discover the operations
available on it; and instantiate the appropriate bean to perform the operation(s).
Eclipse
Project for JPA will
be renamed "Jakarta Persistence" with the following specification
scope:
Jakarta
Persistence defines a standard for management of persistence and object/relational
mapping in Java(R) environments.
Eclipse
Project for WebSocket will
be renamed "Jakarta WebSocket" with the following scope:
Jakarta
WebSocket defines how Jakarta based applications create and manage WebSocket
Clients and Servers.
I hereby request that the Specification Committee vote to approve the conversion
as described above of these existing projects into Specification Projects
under the supervision of the Jakarta EE Working Group.Please respond to this note with:+1 to approve;-1 to reject; or0 to abstain.If you do choose to reject or abstain,
I would appreciate a short (one or two sentence) explanation.I will interpret a single vote as applying
to all of the listed projects. You may also vote for each project individually
(if, for example, you'd like to register different votes for each projects).I will document the results of this vote
on a per-project basis.Thanks,Wayne-- Wayne
