Agenda

  • Question: Are there any objections to the current Spec Committee chair continuing to serve the committee as their non-voting chair for the period of April 1, 2020 to March 31, 2021? [All] - No objections, current chair is confirmed.

  • Introduction to the process simplifications document being prepared by Dmitry and Kevin. Target is to review the completed draft in the May 13th Spec Committee meeting. [Dmitry, Kevin] - Overview presented by Kevin and Dmitry. Document to be shared before the next meeting on the 13th of May.

  • Improving the formatting of specification project pages - Review mockups - To be revisited at next meeting on the 29th. [Christie]

Mockups reviewed. Design accepted as presented with filters removed. Filters to be added later. Spec projects (or designated person) to provide short descriptions 57 to 60 characters in length in the _index.md file. Otherwise the first 57 characters of the long description will be used + “...”.

  • In the April 15th meeting David raised the question if project pages for spec implementations in EE4J should use the Jakarta EE branding? Example see Jersey.  Should we have a default branding that is based on Eclipse (not Jakarta EE)? Alternate branding proposed [Ivar, Christie]
    See issue: https://github.com/jakartaee/jakarta.ee/issues/735

Done for all project pages, except Jersey that needs to accept the PR.

Can the TCK be dual licensed at Maven Central - EFTL & Apache or EPL?

Some TCK builds are using the EFTL instead of the project license. 

File download area one is EFTL

  • Steering Committee on April 7th, 2020 requested a future action for the Spec Committee to structure a discussion on how MP specs may be consumed for Jakarta EE
