Re: [jakarta.ee-spec] [BALLOT] Update JESP to Clarify `jakarta` Namespace Requirements
+1 (Tomitribe)

This was always the intent so it's good to clarify.  This does not preclude us from making exceptions in future updates.  It does start those conversations with the clear understanding the Working Group does have the authority to decide these things and establishes a clear starting place.

This is healthy as statements have been made that specification projects have sole ability to decide the namespace and the Working Group has no ability to decide.  This action would add that clarity that authority and that an exception would be needed.  We can then move onto the real conversation of if we want to make an exception for MicroProfile specifically.

Greetings Jakarta EE Specification Committee.
This is the ballot to action the proposal made in the 11th June Specification Committee meeting to update the text in the JESP to provide clarity on if the 'jakarta' namespace is required or not.
The proposal is to clarify the Specification Committee stance and add the following text to the JESP: "All specifications must use the jakarta namespace".
I have drafted a PR here: https://github.com/jakartaee/jakarta.ee/pull/2185
Per the process, this will be a seven-day ballot, ending on the 19th of June 2025 that requires a Super-majority positive vote of the Specification Committee members (note that there is no veto). 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, Tomitribe, Primeton, and Shandong Cvicse Middleware Co.), 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.
Thanks …
