Re: [jakartaee-platform-dev] Discussion - adding or not adding MVC to Web Profile

I very much agree with this concern. It is very tough to make a case that server-side Java frameworks are mainstream enough to be included in a Jakarta EE profile at all. Indeed, I think it is time to prune things like JSF and JSP from the profiles too. Should things ever change back in favor of Java server-side web frameworks, they could be added to Jakarta EE profiles then.

And I say this while being a long time fan of Java server-side web frameworks. I continue to believe MVC fills a critical void in the Java ecosystem as a stand-alone, pluggable technology.

In my opinion, it would be best to leave it as a stand-alone specification and revisit adding it to a Profile in a future release depending on the adoption rate and demand from the Jakarta EE community.
