Frequently Asked Questions About Jakarta EE 8

Wednesday, May 8, 2019 - 08:00 by Mike Milinkovich

I’d like to thank the community for the level of engagement we’ve seen in response to my post from last week.   This post, which again represents the consensus view of the Jakarta EE Steering Committee, answers some questions about Jakarta EE 8, which is planned as the initial release of Jakarta EE, and is intended to be fully compatible with Java EE 8, including use of the javax namespace.   We thought it would be useful to reiterate the messages we have been delivering about this release.

Specification Scope in Jakarta EE

Monday, April 8, 2019 - 10:56 by Wayne Beaton

With the Eclipse Foundation Specification Process (EFSP) a single open source specification project has a dedicated project team of committers to create and maintain one or more specifications. The cycle of creation and maintenance extends across multiple versions of the specification, and so while individual members may come and go, the team remains and it is that team that is responsible for the every version of that specification that is created.

EFSP: The Specification Committee Votes

Monday, January 21, 2019 - 12:40 by Wayne Beaton

One key difference between Eclipse open source software projects as defined by the Eclipse Development Process (EDP), and open source specification projects as defined by the Eclipse Foundation Specification Process (EFSP) is that specification projects must be aligned with exactly one specification committee.

How is the Eclipse Foundation Specification Process (EFSP) different from Java Community Process (JCP)?

Monday, November 26, 2018 - 14:40 by Tanja Obradovic

By now most of you are aware already that Oracle has contributed Java EE specification to open source, and into Eclipse Foundation. The Java enterprise community decided to rename the Java EE specification to Jakarta EE. Part of this huge transition to open source is changing the specification process. The famous Java Community Process (JCP) is going to be replaced by Eclipse Foundation Specification Process (EFSP), that will be better suited for vendor neutrality, transparency and all other attributes associated with open source. So what exactly is different?
