Thread-topic: Who decide the Jakarta spec namespace?

Thank you, Andrew, for your prompt response! According to the EMO doc as per your email, my understanding is that the namespace of org.eclipse.microprofile can be kept after moving MicroProfile specification to Jakarta EE.

Wayne, do you agree with my above assumption? also, the namespace for a Jakarta Specification is decided by the project rather than the Jakarta EE spec committee. Did I understand correctly.

Thanks

Emily

I don't know the concrete answer, but I found some references implying we at least have some way in it.

The JESP has some notes about usage of the "jakarta" namespace.

https://jakarta.ee/about/jesp/

All development that modifies content in the javax namespace must be moved to a jakarta namespace. All jakarta namespace development must occur within the scope of a Specification Project operating under the purview of the Jakarta EE Working Group’s Specification Committee and must implement the process as defined by the most recently adopted revision of the JESP. Use of the jakarta namespace is limited to API artifacts (all API jars, javadoc, and schema namespaces). It must not be used for any deployment, including applications, TCKs, tools, libraries or any other assets produced by Specification Projects.

The EFSP which the JESP is based on doesn't seem to say much about namespace though (or if it does my eyes are glazing over it).

https://www.eclipse.org/projects/efsp/efsp_1.3/

If I'm reading the EDP correctly, it seems to indicate that namespaces are controlled by the EMO.

https://www.eclipse.org/projects/dev_process/#4_2_Code_and_Releases

Namespaces are assigned to a Project by the EMO. All Project source code must be organized in the assigned namespaces and Projects can only Release code under their own namespace (that is, they cannot infringe on another Eclipse Project’s namespace).

Subject: [jakarta.ee-spec.committee] Who decide the Jakarta spec namespace?

In the recent discussion of hosting MicroProfile in Jakarta EE, there was a discussion about the namespace. I have the following question:

Does the Jakarta Spec committee decide the namespace or the spec project decide the namespace?

e.g. in Jakarta Config, would our Jakarta Spec committee decide the namespace or the committers in the Jakarta Config decide the namespace?
