• Shouldn’t it be linked to the certification issue or the TCK results page provided by the vendor and not the issue for getting listed? If that is the case, the links have to be updated.

Update Proof of Comp on Comp Products page to point at the Public TCK summary as noted in the Comp Certification Request. For example https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/jakartaee-platform/issues/146

Action Item - Add issue to Jakarta EE to clean up Compatible Products page [Ivar] - Issue

Action Item - The Eclipse Foundation will investigate a mechanism to list multiple versions of a product on a product on the Compatible Products page. [Tanja]

Action Item - For product versions not currently listed on the Compatible Products page provide a way to view the historical requests. Could be a GitHub query. [Tanja]
