Hi Markus,
just to be sure, you are -1 for renaming the project. The project name is Jakarta RESTfull Web Services, that's not gonna change. The change is about a short name, which you are +1 for using Jakarta REST.
Now for the GitHub repo, we use jaxrs-api. Are you ok with moving it to rest-api (after moving the repo from eclipse-ee4j to some jakartaee org which happens anyway)? That's what I understand was Ed's email about.

I wonder how you want to change the spec title without a PR.

Hi,
Let’s not do a PR then, and the problem is solved.

Didn't we just do a yes/no vote, with a simple majority?
To sum up, there is one binding -1 vote from a committer, which means that the name will not get changed.

Hi,
Summing up, I think we have a majority vote for Jakarta REST, so shall we go ahead and make that official?
We had a similar issue with Jakarta Faces, which accidentally got named Jakarta Server Faces for a short while. It was fairly easy to correct that. There too, having Jakarta Server Faces as an official name and then Jakarta Faces
as the real name simply didn't add anything for anyone.
Additionally, with having simple names (Jakarta Faces, Jakarta Transactions, Jakarta Persistence, ...) people don't feel the need to start using cryptic abbreviations. Cryptic abbreviations are very unfriendly to new people,
so best avoided.
Projects generally have a full name and a short name. Currently, Jakarta RESTful Web Services has a short name, restful-ws. This name first appears (to me) about the time we were getting RESTful web services 2.1 ready for ballot (Jul-Sep 2019).
I'm +1 on moving away from JAX-RS since that's fading further and further in the rear-view mirror.
I'm supposing we aren't interested in changing the package name -- sticking with
jakarta.ws.rs. In a perfect world, I think it would be nice if the repository and package name lined up but, that seems in-opportune right now (i.e. repository were to become restful-ws and the package name were to change to jakarta.restful_ws or
jakarta.restful.ws. (or replace restful with rest, etc.)
If this is the direction the group decides to go in, we should update the name of the GitHub repository as well as the name of the PMI project page (currently
https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/ee4j.jaxrs). For me, getting the PMI project page, the repository, and it's associated web-page all aligned with the 'short-name' that the Spec. directory uses would be nice. I don't see this as something super urgent
though.
To recap:
I am certain all the jaxrs names are just hold-over legacy. The team can decide if it wants to use 'rest' or 'restful-ws' or anything else that can be consistently applied. Maybe the 4.0 release is the right time for doing this.

I do not see the confusion. IMHO most people are able to understand that "Jakarta REST" simply is a short from of "Jakarta RESTful Web Services".

I am -1 for actually renaming the project, but I am +1 for adopting "Jakarta REST" as the official short form we commonly use in our documents.
That is basically the status quo. It simply adds confusion when we mostly refer to it as “Jakarta REST” and the project is named differently.
