Welcome to issue number two hundred and thirty-three of Hashtag Jakarta EE!
This week I was speaking at DevBCN 2024 in Barcelona. My next conference appearance will be at Developer Week ’24, which takes place in Nürnberg on July 1-5. But even if conference season is winding down for summer, I will still be found at airports here and there. Right now, I am on my way to Montreal for the early Eclipse Foundation All-Hands where I will get to meet and socialize with my colleagues from all over the World.
All the individual specifications that are targeting Jakarta EE 11 are now done. Two are still under release review with the Jakarta EE Specification Committee and will conclude at the latest on June 26. The work with wrapping up the Platform, Web Profile, and Core Profile specifications will continue along with the implementation of compatible implementation(s) for ratification as well as the refactoring efforts of the Jakarta EE TCK.
