More retrospective items?

XML Binding 4.0 TCK Challenge for 16 tests failing due to www.w3.org redirect from http to https)

  • https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/jaxb-tck/issues/78.
  • GlassFish 7 M8 (and other implementations) were passing until www.w3.org added the http redirect.
  • Not much to discuss other than call for a quick resolution of the jaxb-tck/issues/78 challenge so implementations can pass the identified 16 tests.
    • Lukas: it would be better to fix the tests rather than hide the problem by excluding the tests, even if it takes more time.
    • Emily: A spec committee exception would be needed to change the tests.
    • It would be better to change the tests from http to https
    • How to fix the problem and also get the certification going through without being delayed for a long time?
      • Doing a DNS working might be tricky for some other runtime.
      • Next step: ask for permission from the Spec committee for tests update. [Emily]
  • Affects XML Binding 3.0 TCK as well.
  • Other TCKs that deal with XML somehow might be impacted as well.
    • We should run other TCKs again as well.

Security TCK release or acceptance of https://github.com/jakartaee/security/issues/270

  • Exception approval ballot is in progress and will be concluded this weekend.

Rest challenges

Conclusion for challenges

  • If the tests are excluded or modified by the reported to pass, this should enable a particular runtime to certify.
