Hola Jakartees, 

+ 2 weeks ago, I sent to the new Marketing repository issue[Participant Members Quotes] ought to be added to the Membership rotation #30

This is a voluntary submit your quotes (applicable to 11 Members, including Enterprise) answering in 2 to 3 sentences via the Issue ticket, why you choose to support/invest your ORGs' money, human capital resources & time to the re-branding of Java EE. 

Currently, the quotes that rotate in the Membership Benefits page have only 6 quotes from Strategic Members. 

Why this email exists? 

About 1 month ago, 1 beautiful Jakartee asked me about the quotes. 
Questions asked:
  1. Shouldn't the quotes include any ORG that is actively contributing to the Jakarta EE project? 
I said, YES, it must be inclusive and include any member listed on the Membership page. 
  1. Then, why is it that only Strategic Members continue to be highlighted across the board in all Jakarta EE informal blogs, this space...? 
I said you are correct to call out what I have called out via the community forum a few times before. 
We must do better to put forth formal Jakarta EE Announcements reviewed by the Steering committee so that the Jakarta EE Working Group Members is the signature used and not any individual or the Foundation. 

With this, we must do better, and that starts with caring enough to own the involvement that includes oversights. 

I finished that conversation with, Tomitribe's quote was not requested by the people in charge of setting up the quotes. 
When I saw the quotes, I sent our quote, and I expected others to be welcomed to send the quotes as we did. THAT was a mistake. Fixing something on the quiet side and not scaling how we push for inclusion needs to be documented somewhere in the Repo for Jakarta EE so that new Members have an onboarding Q&A where they know exactly what's what & can help improve the process by doing. 

Please send your quotes, don't hesitate to choose to be included.  1 action, yours can make things better!
