Re: [jakarta.ee-spec.committee] GitHub repository naming conventions?

I do believe the spec and api should be in the same repo. The TCKs should be in a separate repo.

Do we want to establish any conventions or guidelines or (heaven forbid) rules?

I'm not sure putting the spec document in the same repo as the API classes is the best choice, but really I'm much more concerned about having some consistency in where to go for the web site with information about each spec.

I have no strong opinion.

The PMC has made a recommendation that specification documents be represented in existing API repositories. At least a few project teams have expressed a desire to do this. I'm sure that some project teams will make other decisions. So, there will likely be few "wombat-spec" repositories.

As part of the restructuring review, I am assuming that projects will use existing "API" repositories. If a project team wants a separate "spec" repository, they can ask for one.

Have we decided on naming conventions for the GitHub repositories
that are part of specification projects?  For example, will we have

github.com/eclipse-ee4j/wombat-spec
github.com/eclipse-ee4j/wombat-tck
github.com/eclipse-ee4j/wombat-api

(Ignoring the eventual "eclipse-ee4j" -> "jakartaee" renaming.)

Will there be a

github.com/eclipse-ee4j/wombat

repository?  And what would it contain?

Which one of the above repositories would host the GitHub Pages web site?
eclipse-ee4j.github.io/wombat-spec?

Would we expect GitHub Pages web sites for the other repos?  What would
they contain?

And when should we use a GitHub Pages web site vs. a GitHub Wiki?
