Welcome to issue number two hundred and ninety-eight of Hashtag Jakarta EE!
This week I attended Community Over Code 2025 in Minneapolis. And, as I am writing this, I am in Cancun for this year’s edition of Jalapeño.
Jakarta EE 12 moves forward toward the first milestone. We are still in the works of finding a good replacement for the OSSRH staging server for maven artifacts. We also started the process of merging the Jakarta EE TCK project in under the Jakarta EE Platform project. This is more of a practical and logistical matter to align with how the other projects are organized.
Last week’s platform call also had a brief discussion around including the new Jakarta Query specification in Jakarta EE 12. Most of the discussion was around how to solve the TCK for this specification. More to come on this topic.
On September 23 and 24, I will be speaking at the Open Source Community Day in Madrid. The title of my session is AI in Enterprises – Java and Open Source to the Rescue. The talk will be about tools and frameworks for AI intergration in Java-based enterprise systems. Check out the agenda, and register for the event if you like to discuss the impact of open source with like-minded peers.
