Re: [jakarta.ee-spec.committee] Certification Requests for Specifications with no TCK
|
Where we left this topic to day is still unclear to me. Here's what I understood from today's call:
- Must GlassFish file a certification request with the EJB project: yes, cause rules
- Must OpenLiberty file a certification request with the EJB project: no, cause they don't want to
I've filed and approved a request on behalf of the GlassFish project so my part is done:
- https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/ejb-api/issues/56
My primary position on today's call was we should be honest with ourselves on if a rule is providing enough value to be worth it. IMO, rules are a form of technical debt. When we say one thing and immediately do another, it's a sign the debt isn't (yet) worth it.
My ambitions commonly outpace my actions, so it's something I aggressively watch for. Probably still not enough :)
