Subject:        Proposed Updates to Ratified CIs on Platform Specification page



Hi,
Per the discussion on yesterday's Spec Committee call, I conferred with Ivar and came up with the following proposed draft PR.

PR:  https://github.com/jakartaee/specifications/pull/379
Preview:  
https://deploy-preview-379--jakartaee-specifications.netlify.app/specifications/platform/9.1/

As a reminder, this discussion was initiated due to the request by ManageFish to be listed as a CI used for Ratification on the 9.1 Platform page -- even though ManageFish is a strict derivative (re-packaged) Glassfish distribution.  We are going ahead with listing ManageFish for the 9.1 ballot, but we may want to do something different going forward.  That's the background for this proposed PR.


You'll notice a few things about this PR:
  • I changed the "Compatible Implementation" wording with "Compatible Certification Request" wording.
  • I'm removing the "used for ratification.." clause.
  • I replaced the list of CIs with a general link that points at a newly created "Jakarta EE 9.1 CCRs" Milestone.  The Milestone can show all of the various CCRs that are associated with this release in any state -- open, closed, accepted (or not), etc.
  • I did add a new [ratified] label to indicate which CCR was used to ratify the Platform Specification version.  We still need to identify which CCR (or CI) was used for ratification.  This approach is not as blatant as the previous approach.  Maybe it's more acceptable?

Let's try to discuss this via the mailing list and/or the PR so that we can have a fruitful discussion at our next Spec Committee call.  I'm not advocating that we change anything for the 9.1 release.  I just used 9.1 because it was unique and easy to work with.  Thanks!
