Re: [jakartaee-platform-dev] Discussion on the future of Jakarta Config

[Tanja Obradovic <tanja.obradovic@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jan, All,

this is a very important discussion that is of interest to both Working Groups. Each Working Group needs to discuss internally and decide what their needs independently and freely, before a common discussion starts, at least that was agreed upon a few years ago.

In order to do that and to make sure we involve the community and all people that have a say in these technical decisions, I do not think cn4j-alliance is sufficient mailing list. 

Here is why:

CN4J mailing list does not contain the full technical community

• CNJ4 mailing list has (https://accounts.eclipse.org/mailing-list/cn4j-alliance ) 82 subscribers and both communities need to recognize that not everyone is interested in being subscribed to this mailing list. Also it is not a mailing list necessarily focused on technical discussions.

• Technical mailing lists

• Jakarta Config mailing list (https://accounts.eclipse.org/mailing-list/config-dev ) has 48 subscribers and is focused on technical config related topics, so this is the mailing list for the discussion

• Microprofile DEV (https://accounts.eclipse.org/mailing-list/microprofile-dev) has 114 subscribers

• Jakarta EE Platform mailing list Jakarta Config mailing list 306 (https://accounts.eclipse.org/mailing-list/jakartaee-platform-dev ).

• Microprofile mailing lists

• There is also Microprofile WG (https://accounts.eclipse.org/mailing-list/microprofile-wg) that has 91 subscribers

• Google group mailing list numbers are not available to me ? (note: many community members are not willing to use google groups)

As you can notice it will be far more effective to have and continue a discussion as Jared initiated in the this email thread,  involving Jakarta Config mailing list, but would suggest to consult MP leads on what MP mailing list needs to be  used. Jakarta EE Platform team should be consulted on when they would like to be looped into this conversation.

I hope you all find this helpful.

Best,

Tanja
