#1 is clear and does forbid TCK testing of certain cases that have been discussed as valid, which means in the future, such TCK tests if added, can easily be challenged as invalid (e.g. someone adding a TCK test that requires WEB containers to deploy apps that contain SPEC API classes would be challenged as invalid). 

#2 seems ambiguous and conflicts with #1, consider letting #1 define the rule instead of making exceptions for older EE version TCKs to use jakarta namespace.   

#3 seems to state that use of ee.jakarta.tck.[spec] is optional (e.g. such a name is approved but not required, which I think implies optional). 

#4 remove the text "in Jakarta EE 10" as #4 currently contradicts the currently stated #3.

Thanks

Below is the response to clarify the following confusion.
 

  • Confusion around what was decided regarding TCK package names and how it is to be applied to spec projects in Jakarta EE 10, and subsequent releases was not provided

    • Package namespace decision is for future releases [Emily]

 
===========
In the recent TCK package name discussions, it seems that there was confusion around what was decided regarding TCK package names and how it is to be applied to specification projects in Jakarta EE 10 and subsequent releases.
 
Jakarta Spec committer discussed this in this week's spec committee call. Below is the clarification.
 
1. The usage of jakarta.* as Jakarta EE TCK package names is NOT permitted in any of Jakarta EE releases.
2. If a newly written Jakarta EE 10 TCK uses jakarta.*, they MUST be renamed to a package not starting with jakarta.*
3. The recent approved TCK package name ee.jakarta.tck.[spec] can be used by Jakarta EE TCKs but the usage is not required.
4. Any other package name not starting with jakarta.* is permitted in Jakarta EE 10.
 
Please let me know if you have comments.
 
By the way, after this is approved, should we send to jakarta platform and tck mailinglist? any other mailing list?
 
Thanks
Emily
