Re: [jakarta.ee-spec.committee] An update to the Eclipse Foundation Specification Process
I made the mistake of getting distracted by some structural changes in the document.

I've been updating a "diff" link on the website as I push changes into the 1.3 branch.

https://www.eclipse.org/projects/efsp/diff.php

I'd intended to include that link when I started this thread. My apologies.

It seems like going through the issues and getting them resolved is what is needed currently. The version_1_3 branch is not particularly useful for making suggestions. Perhaps when the issues are resolved and the final form is close, a PR can be made so that the review capability can be used for additional suggestions.

Greetings Jakarta EE Specification Committee.

As we discussed previously, I've started work on a new revision of the EFSP.

My primary interest is to focus the EFSP itself more on the intellectual property flows and less on prescribing the specific nature of specifications themselves. As we apply the process to other domains, and indeed within the Jakarta EE specification space itself, we're finding that much of our earlier understanding just doesn't apply generally.

Note that rolling out a new version of the EFSP does not automatically impose anything on specification committees already engaged in a specification process. Following the approval of a new version of the EFSP, the specification committee will have an opportunity to adopt the new process and integrate it into their own.

I'm tracking the effort in a GitHub board. A diff of the work-in-progress is here.

I invite all members of the specification committee to add their comments on the open issues and create new issues if there are specific things that you believe need to be addressed. Pull requests are welcome.

I'm assembling a committee with representatives from each of the working groups engaged in specification development to produce this update. My intent is to set up a one hour meeting as soon as I have representatives from each working group to go over what I've done with the draft so far. 

Dan and Kevin have volunteered to represent the interests of the Jakarta EE specification committee. 

Thanks,

Wayne
