Hi all,

Can we have an update on the elections?  There's some early decision making going on (which is fine!) but the various committees do not have their full complements and therefore aren't 100% representative of the Jakarta EE community (as it stands today), which is not quite ideal.

Cheers,
Martijn

Meeting Minutes from Jakarta EE Steering Committee Meeting (May 22, 2018)

Attendees:

Fujitsu: Kenji Kazamura
IBM: Dan Bandera
Oracle: Will Lyons
Payara: [Steve Millidge sent regrets]
Red Hat: Mark Little/Scott Stark
Tomitribe: Richard Monson-Haefel

Eclipse: Mike Milinkovich

Review of Minutes from Prior Meeting

  • The meeting minutes from the 5/15 meeting were approved.
  • To move the discussion faster, we agreed that in future meetings, the secretary (me) will move that if there are no objections, that the minutes of the prior meeting be approved.  If there are no objections, the minutes shall be considered approved.

Marketing Committee Update

  • Briefly discussed the draft of the 5/17 Marketing Committee Meeting Minutes. 

Highlights are that the group is working on a Jakarta EE Marketing Mission Statement and Social Media Guidelines. Making good progress.   Still a couple of weeks away from creating a calendar.

Interesting blog from Tomitribe.

  • Other updates
Will Lyons and David Delabassee presented and interviewed on Java EE and Jakarta EE at Java Day Tokyo

Spec Committee Update

  • Briefly discussed the draft of 5/15 Spec Committee meeting minutes
Good progress is being made.   Working on Eclipse Foundation Specification Process: Goals and Requirements v2

Technical Vision Update/PMC

  • This topic was discussed at the PMC meeting today (5/22).   The new plan/intent for PMC is to publish a proposed mission document, for Jakarta EE as a whole, by the end of the week, for community feedback.   This will build on some of the thoughts included in Dmitry's blog post on Jakarta EE Technical Directions.  The goal is not to dictate a direction, but to provide a strawman for community feedback.

Status of Oracle Contributions

Wayne circulated a detailed status update for all projects  See e-mail attached subject: "[jakarta.ee-steering] Status of EE4J Projects".  During the Steering Committee discussion he realized there were some errors in this report, and that some projects that were listed as "awaiting project creation on June 6" have already been created.

To reset, here is the high-level status of EE4J projects (as of midday 5/22) according to the link above:
  • 39 project proposals have been created
  • 26 project committers and reources have been provisioned
  • 18 of these projects have initial contributions provided to the Eclipse IP team
  • 15 of these projects have the initial contribution pushed to the Git Repository
Oracle received internal approval last week for our third batch of contributions.   We expect a series of contributions this week that will result in updates and progress reflected in the status link above, and the high-level status reflected in the bullets above.

Recruitment of new members; Elections

No updates on election process.   Paul will be following up on Enterprise recruitment with vendors this week.

Legal Documents

No significant updates from the last meeting
Oracle and EF have a meeting scheduled in the first week of June

Budget for 2019

From prior meeting minutes:  "Mike requested that a new recurring topic be added to steering committee agenda: Budget for 2019. This will be ongoing discussion for the next several meetings. In general, this should conclude in September. The Eclipse Foundation uses a Calendar year for fiscal management (FY = CY). Paul will cascade this to other committees."
We agreed to defer the discussion to next week.  Paul and Mike will draft an initial statement.

Other Business

Mike will be doing a JCP EC update on Jakarta EE on May 24

Mike has "set up a Jakarata EE Steering Committee Google Team Drive. For SC members and alternates who want access to this, please email me your Google id email address and I will add you to the access list."

The Steering Committee agreed to post minutes publicly at the Jakarta EE Working Group web site.    Finding the minutes in the current WG archive is too hard.

The Steering Committee recommends that the Spec Committee and Marketing Committee post minutes publicly as well, in the manner that they prefer.

Mike floated the idea of a "Jakarta One" web conference this fall (either Sept or Nov/Dec).  There was positive response from the Steering Committee.   The Eclipse Foundation will pursue this idea.
