Re: [jakarta.ee-spec.committee] use of ./apidocs PR...

Hi,
As I continue to review these PRs, I'm questioning the use of the second apidocs PR.  How do we plan to process the javadoc that we're pushing to this repository?
What do you mean by "process"?  For review?  Or after approval?  After approval we'll merge the PR and the javadocs will appear on the jakarta.ee website.

I'm finding it's easier to review the content of jakarta.<spec>-<version>-javadoc.jar file than to review the content on the PR.

The combined "jakarta ee api" jar file is created by accessing the maven artifacts and re-generating all of the javadoc.

So, I'm just wondering what we're accomplishing with the extra PR.  Maybe we should just have a pointer to the staging repo for the javadoc jar file?  Again, if we're too late to change the process, then I'm fine with that.  Or, maybe I need some education as to what the separate PR buys us.  Or, maybe I'm working too late this evening...  :-)
The extra PR avoids cluttering up the main PR and making it impossible to find the key files that need to be reviewed there.

I'm using the "hub" command as David described to pull the javadoc PR to my machine and then open it in a browser.  I don't try to review the javadoc PR on GitHub.
