Welcome to issue number three hundred and thirty-eighth of Hashtag Jakarta EE!

We are entering the summer months on the Northern Hemisphere, and with that the activity generally gets a little lower. Jakarta EE is no exception. However, the work with Jakarta EE 12 continues. The specifications of Jakarta EE Core Profile are well underway and continues to ship milestone releases. A milestone of Jakarta RESTful Web Services is expected to be produced pretty soon.

I am in Norway visiting family a couple of days, so I apologise for this rather short post. Of course, I take the opportunity for some runs in the beautiful nature, of course waring my #runWithJakartaEE shirt. By the way, if you are on Strava, I have added a #runWithJakartaEE Strava group. It is public, so please search for it and join. I will also use this group in addition to my other channels to announce community runs at conferences and events I am attending.

Here is something for you if you are up for some summer reading, Rustam continues to explore hidden gems among the Jakarta EE specifications in his blog posts. Check out the latest about using Jakarta Expression Language to write safer rules without handwritten predicate parsers.
