Re: [jakarta.ee-spec] [Ballot] Optional Features Resolution

Kenji,
Based on the discussions
that we have had on this topic, I would say that "no new optional
features" applies to both of your scenarios.

Paul,
Let me clear the meaning of “no optional features”. When we add new
features, we cannot make them optional. Or We cannot change the existing
required features to be optional. Or Both. ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

This is a seven day ballot, ending on Wednesday, August 4th. Community input is welcome, but only votes cast by Specification Committee Representatives will be counted.

The Specification Committee is composed of representatives of the Jakarta EE Working Group Member Companies (Fujitsu, IBM, Oracle, Payara, Red Hat, Tomitribe, and Primeton), along with individuals who represent the EE4J PMC, Participant Members, and Committer Members.

Specification Committee representatives, your vote is hereby requested. Please respond with +1 (positive), 0 (abstain), or -1 (reject).  Any feedback that you can provide to support your vote will be appreciated.
