Welcome to issue number three hundred and three of Hashtag Jakarta EE!
This week I was in Croatia for JavaCro 2025. The conference season isn’t quite over yet. Next week, I will go to Kraków to present Jakarta EE at JDD 2025. Last time I was at JDD was in 2014, so It has been a while since I spoke at this conference.
The ballot for inclusion of Jakarta Query 1.0 in the Jakarta EE Platform and Jakarta EE Web Profile concluded successfully. As a part of Milestone 1 in the Jakarta EE 12 Release Plan, a good portion of specifications published a M1 release of their specification artifact. The Platform team will most likely publish an M1 release of the APIs in near future.
A proposal for a new specification called Jakarta Agentic Artificial Intelligence has been submitted and is now out for public community review. In addition to commenting on the proposal itself, you can also provide input in the EMO tracking issue. The next steps for this specification will be to go through a Creation Review by the Jakarta EE Specification Committee. That will be started as soon as the community review is done.
The program for JakartaOne Livestream has been selected and will be published shortly. The 12-hour online event will be on December 2, 2025. Stay tuned for more information the coming weeks.
