Past business / action items:

  • Approval of the minutes from the November 20th meeting. Dan moves to approve. Mark seconds. No objection. Motion passed.


Agenda

  • Additional specification documents to be released by the Foundation to spec projects:

    • Jakarta Persistence (aka JPA) spec document has been released today

  • Discussion on next steps for the Jakarta-owned specifications that were removed in Java SE 11

https://github.com/jakartaee/specifications/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aopen+label%3Ajavase

    • Agreement: Unanimous support from committee to go forward to ballot and bring these specs in to Jakarta EE

      • Immediate next step is for committee members to give the specs a review to determine readiness to proceed to ballot

  • Jakarta EE 9 Plan Review for the Platform, Profile and stand-alone specifications

    • Combine the Plan Review step for all specifications that are participating Jakarta EE 9?

    • Agreement: Default is all specifications are in one plan review, those specifications that do not fit the base requirement of only moving from javax to jakarta would be an exception and require an individual plan review.

    • Idea (from David) - As part of the plan review, create a PR that shows all of the prospective specification versions (placeholders).  David will mock up an example and then we’ll move on from there...

  • Migration from OSSRH to future Jakarta Nexus

    • Action Items:

      • David to provide an overview on the next call

        • Notes: Overview provided. Proposal approved to move the jakarta.* roles in a batch and request approval from the other roles (com.*, org.*) to move when and if they choose. Provide a recommendation and state the benefits. 

  • Review recent changes to the Operations document

https://github.com/jakartaee/specification-committee

  • Clarity on state of spec committee meetings taking place or not (MW added)

    • Notes: Add new spec committee members to shared calendar (if needed).

      • Shift to biweekly in 2020? Proposal to be brought forward on the 18th.

  • Process for releasing new dot-dot versions of TCKs (BS added)

    • Notes: As well as the existing TCK process, the associated spec project page needs to be updated and a PR created against the spec project so that someone on the spec committee can create and promote the signed version, and merge the PR.

  • How to get all Jakarta EE committers read access to any Jakarta EE CI (SMS added)
