Subject: [EXTERNAL] [jakartaee-tck-dev] BALLOT to restructure Jakarta Platform and Jakarta TCK Eclipse projects

 

Jakarta Platform and TCK members, I request your vote to approve the proposal to restructure the Jakarta EE Platform and Platform TCK Eclipse projects to be a single project. This will not affect the existing mailing lists or the github repositories. 

Jakarta Platform and TCK members,

I request your vote to approve the proposal to restructure the Jakarta EE Platform and Platform TCK Eclipse projects to be a single project.  This will not affect the existing mailing lists or the github repositories.  Those will continue to be separate.  This proposal will combine the projects and committer list of the Platform and Platform TCK Eclipse projects.

This will be a fourteen-day ballot, ending on Wednesday, September 24, 2025, that requires a simple majority positive vote of the committee members (note that there is no veto).  Community input is welcome, but only votes cast by Platform and TCK Committers will be counted.

Please respond with +1 (positive), 0 (abstain), or -1 (reject) on this BALLOT to indicate your preference regarding whether or not to combine the projects. Any feedback that you can provide to support your vote will be appreciated.
