Agenda

Agreement: Unanimous support from committee to go forward to ballot and bring these specs in to Jakarta EE
12/11 - Ballots planned for mid-January. More participation requested, they will however be approved by lazy-consensus to be confirmed on the first spec committee call in the new year.
Jakarta EE 9 Plan Review for the Platform, Profile and stand-alone specifications
Combine the Plan Review step for all specifications that are participating Jakarta EE 9?
Agreement: Default is all specifications are in one plan review, those specifications that do not fit the base requirement of only moving from javax to jakarta would be an exception and require an individual plan review.
Idea (from David) - As part of the plan review, create a PR that shows all of the prospective specification versions (placeholders). David will mock up an example and then we’ll move on from there…
12/11 - Foundation guidance is that high-level plan with specification versions, content: javax → jakarta. Specification committee members can vote based on their own criteria with explanation. However we expect the vote to be a confirmation of the plan delegated to the Platform Project.
