The generated
PDF does not include the Javadoc content.  TBH, I also thought that
was the original requirement.  But, as we worked through the skeletal
Spec process, it was determined that this was not a requirement.  Maybe
that was a wrong conclusion, but that's where we stand.  Definitely
a topic for our call today.  Thanks.

Mike, I'm confused by this statement.  I thought this was a requirement
since the combination of the Skeletal Spec plus the JavaDoc constituted
the "Specification" for the Jakarta EE 8 components.  If
this is truly not required, it simplifies a lot of work.
I am operating under the assumption that
the PDF file produced as the final specification document will include
the JavaDoc content. That PDF file is the artifact that should be made
available under the EFSL, and that is the mechanism by which the APIs are
all clearly licensed for use in independent implementations. I don't see
why you would ever want to put a jar file under the EFSL.
Of course if my assumption is incorrect
then I'm wrong.
I'll join the Spec Committee call today
to discuss.
