Welcome to issue number two hundred and ninety-seven of Hashtag Jakarta EE!
This week I was in Norway for JavaZone 2025 where I presented the talk titled The Past, the Present, and the Future of Enterprise Java. I have done this talk a couple of times, and even if the overall story is the same, the specifics change every time I do it. Next week, at Community Over Code in Minneapolis, I will do it with an angle toward The Apache Software Foundation.
I was not able to join the Jakarta EE Platform call since I was busy at the conference, but from the meeting minutes, I can see that the Milestone 1 of Jakarta EE 12 is shaping up with the details for what the component specifications are expected to do. There is a small challenge as a consequence of the migration from OSSRH to the Maven Central Portal as we haven’t really figured out a good replacement for staging of the specification artifacts. I expect this will be solved in near future.
