[jakarta.ee-spec.committee] TCK package names

["Emily Jiang" <EMIJIANG@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Below is the response to clarify the following confusion.

 

• Confusion around what was decided regarding TCK package names and how it is to be applied to spec projects in Jakarta EE 10, and subsequent releases was not provided

  • Package namespace decision is for future releases [Emily]

 

===========

In the recent TCK package name discussions, it seems that there was confusion around what was decided regarding TCK package names and how it is to be applied to specification projects in Jakarta EE 10 and subsequent releases.

 

Jakarta Spec committer discussed this in this week's spec committee call. Below is the clarification.

 

1. The usage of jakarta.* as Jakarta EE TCK package names is NOT permitted in any of Jakarta EE releases.

2. If a newly written Jakarta EE 10 TCK uses jakarta.*, they MUST be renamed to a package not starting with jakarta.*

3. The recent approved TCK package name ee.jakarta.tck.[spec] can be used by Jakarta EE TCKs but the usage is not required.

4. Any other package name not starting with jakarta.* is permitted in Jakarta EE 10.

 

Please let me know if you have comments.

 

By the way, after this is approved, should we send to jakarta platform and tck mailinglist? any other mailing list?

 

Thanks
Emily
