Re: [jakarta.ee-spec.committee] [config-dev] Start Jakarta Config Termin

[Ondro Mihályi <mihalyi@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Jakarta Config is very important for further Jakarta EE development and it's long overdue. It's a pity that the project has been dormant for so long, despite having so many committers.

In fact, I plan to initiate a restart of the work on the spec later this year. I already talked to a few committers. A problem is that many people expect that MicroProfile WG will join the Jakarta EE WG and then Jakarta Config will be based on MicroProfile Config or possibly MicroProfile Config will be superceeded by Jakarta Config.

In the current situation, I'm not sure whether it's better trigger a progress review for Config spec to keep it live or to terminate the current spec and restart a new spec once we are ready to work on it, possibly after MicroProfile WG joins the Jakarta WG. I would be for initiating a progress review to keep it live for a while.

All the best,

Hi,

This project is approaching two years overdue for a progress review on its inaugural 1.0 release.

Is there any interest in keeping this project alive, or should we move to start a Termination Review?

The specification committee previously agreed to holding a two-week lazy consensus period before kicking off the termination review. This two week period will end on the 27th of May.

Thanks,

Andrew Pielage
