Re: [jakartaee-platform-dev] about the status of atinject

+1 for forking
+1 for keeping it separate

Hi Mark

Would atinject retain independent spec or do you want include in CDI
spec ?

Personality, i prefer first solution. CDI remain a solution top of DI.
Other implementation could use DI of JakartaEE (Spring, Guice, ...)

Before we fork jsr330, couldn't we ask to maintainer of project to
transfer jsr330 to JakartaEE ?
