Welcome to issue number two hundred and twenty-two of Hashtag Jakarta EE!
This week I was in Bucharest for Voxxed Days Bucharest 2024. Even with a strike looming over Austrian Airlines, my trip was smooth without disruptions. The release reviews of the Jakarta EE 11 specifications are progressing. The current status of these reviews are:
Done:
– Jakarta Expression Language 6.0
In progress:
– Jakarta Annotations 3.0
– Jakarta Contexts and Dependency Injection 4.1
– Jakarta Interceptors 2.2
– Jakarta Web Socket 2.2
About to start:
– Jakarta Authorization 3.0
– Jakarta Persistence 3.2
– Jakarta Servlet 6.1
– Jakarta Validation 3.1
So far, everything is more or less according to the release plan. The second milestone release (11.0.0-M2) will be made available soon. It turned out that the keys used to sign the release artifacts had expired, so we have to wait until those in charge of renewing them are back to work after the Easter holidays.
