Yes, the new specification process will be publicly discussed on
this list.
But to set expectations, I think it will be a few months before
that topic bubbles to the top of the priority queue. I would be
happy if we exceeded expectations, but I am trying to be
realistic.

Mike. Is that expected to be openly discussed? Or will it be
decided by the same group that agreed on the EE4J name?
I understand (although don't share) that the project creation
was done pretty privately. But now that the project is live, I
really expect we can start participating on those important
aspects.

It is my understanding that the new specification process
will not be
using the JCP.
