Re: [jakartaee-platform-dev] New, modified votes coming...

Thanks for the great response and discussion for the NEW VOTES that were posted last week.  Several of the votes are pretty much unanimous, but we still need some binding votes from the rest of the Platform Committers (13 total) to make them official (simple majority).  Thanks!

VOTE 2 and VOTE 3 related to the dropped APIs from Java SE 11 also need some help.  Although the discussion is leaning one way, the binding votes are in a dead heat.  Please talk with your teams and your customers so that we can get more binding votes in place.  We would like to complete this vote and the discussion at tomorrow's Platform call in preparation for our Jakarta EE 9 Release Plan.  Thank you!  Here are the current tallies...

=====

VOTE 1 to Prune Stable APIs
+1 (binding) - 6
+1 (non-binding) - 8

=====

VOTE 2 to Leave Activation in javax namespace (required for platform)
+1 (binding) - 2
+1 (non-binding) - 1

0 (binding) - 2

-1 (binding) - 2
-1 (non-binding) - 4

=====

VOTE 3 to Leave JAXB, JAX-WS, SOAP, and WS Metadata in javax namespace (all as optional for platform)
+1 (binding) - 2
+1 (non-binding) -1

0 (binding) - 1

-1 (binding - 2 (implied by -1 in VOTE 2)
-1 (non-binding) - 5

=====

VOTE 4 to Make Enterprise Web Services and EJB 2.x API Group as Optional
+1 (binding) - 5
+1 (non-binding) - 5

-1 (non-binding) - 1

=====

VOTE 5 to Prune EJB Interop (Ch 10 of EJB 3.2 Spec)
+1 (binding) - 4
+1 (non-binding) - 5

=====

Hi,
Yesterday's Platform call was eye-opening in the sense of all of the new ideas and comments that came flooding out.  There were many opinions expressed and that is all appreciated!  But, we still need to come to a conclusion soon and propose a solution for Jakarta EE 9.


To that end, Steve and I met and discussed all of the pruning and adding of the various Specifications and Features.  We read through all of the emails (again) and discussed the various Platform calls we've had on this topic.  We know we can't please everyone, but we think we have come up with three new proposals that will be acceptable to most of us.  We want to verify our thinking by proposing these three new votes via separate emails.  We are looking for the same type of +1/0/-1 voting.  If you vote a 0 or -1, please explain your reasons in the reply.


Just to give you a flavor of the votes (without the detail), the votes will be centered on Pruning, Optional (javax namespace), Optional (jakarta namespace).  The actual voting notes will have the detail.


We will start these votes today and run them through next Tuesday, Dec 10.  That gives almost a full week.  Since we have all been discussing these items for weeks now, I think providing a vote by next Tuesday is acceptable.


And, one final Thank You!  The input for the Sizing Exercise has been encouraging...

I'm seeing many updates through out the various components.  Much appreciated!  But, we're still looking for more input...  We need to get a reading on a prospective End Date for Jakarta EE 9 -- month or quarter in 2020.  Eventually (by Dec 13), we will need to propose a Release Plan with a Date and we'll use the data received.  So, please consider reviewing the spreadsheet and providing any data that you can.  Thanks!
