Re: [jakarta.ee-spec.committee] [External] : Jakarta NoSQL
Agree with Ed.

This scenario is exactly what Progress Reviews are for: updating a work-in-progress specification to solicit interim-feedback from the world.

We've not really done one of those yet, so this feels like a good time to set the example others should follow.

So, I guess it depends on their intent.

One question that comes to mind is, where should a specification team post and distribute for comment, their work in progress -- as they reach their various internal milestones.

In my perspective -- the Specifications site ought to show what has been approved in the various ballots since the pages also include representation that the members have voted on the content.

The model we used in the past was for Specification teams to work from their project sites, until they needed a ballot/approval action. So, I'd have recommended against trying to push an update to the Spec. pages like this. If there isn't a link to their working site, perhaps there should be. If they need amplification to get eye-balls on their work, we ought to be able to provide that separately.

If they are working toward a ballot and this material is what would be included in that ballot, I'd encourage the PR, but if it's just to publicize and get commentary on a working draft that isn't in some way voted on by the members, I'd recommend it belongs elsewhere.

Hi,

I don't know if you've noticed, but the Jakarta NoSQL spec project has submitted a PR with updates to their specification page.


What is our process for this? 
They are not requesting a progress review at this point. Should they?
The PR does contain references to "Beta 3" versions of their artifacts (doc, API, TCK). Since it is not a formal release, I guess that is ok. Or should they have engaged in a release review for this?
