Agenda and Minutes

Jakarta EE 11 Release Planning

    • New email sent to spec leads list to request input asap
  • Project Lead Survey responses
    • How to get more responses?
  • Release Plan DRAFT

Application Client Container (from last call)

  • Is this still relevant?
  • Mark as deprecated in Jakarta EE 11 and then remove it in Jakarta EE 12?
    • Deprecate in Jakarta EE 11 and document the better technology such as using Rest Client etc.
    • Open an issue on jakarta platform to document this and track user feedback
  • Running EJB code on the client side. As EJB is not that important any more because of CDI, we should consider marking it as deprecated.
  • Application client is used to access remote service, does CDI offer the same?
    • No but CDI does not do the remote call.

Duplicate class files in platform JARs (Regression: EE 10 Platform API JARs include all classes, and transitive dependencies to Spec API JARs leading to duplicate classes and JPMS split package failures and OSGi issues)

  • Scott will take a look at this issue

Faces challenges: https://github.com/jakartaee/faces/issues/1722

  • Ed will investigate this.

Issue for commenting on Jan’s slides

Any data of adopting Jakarta EE 10

  • Check with vendors
  • Use Jakarta EE survey to find out
  • Support of the Java SE level availability
  • Support from one system with all kinds of dependencies brings complication
  • Promote the latest releases
    • Green field project might be a good fit to use Jakarta EE 10
    • Jakarta EE starters and advocacies
    • Conference talks on migrating from Jakarta EE 8 to EE 10
    • Security is one of the drivers to move up but Jakarta EE might not fit in this category.
