  • Pick your favorite topic and create an issue (nobody else will…)
  • Add a comment in the doc with link to the issue
• Action: Create a tracking issue for each component specification that is planning a release for EE 11 (based on project lead responses) - Ivar will start with this, but anyone can help…

Jakarta Persistence is planning a minor update (backward compatible) (3.2)

• The industry seems very interested in this specification
• The project now has bi–weekly calls (insert link). Do join these calls to provide input!

Jakarta Data

Jakarta EE 11 release coordinator

• GitHub extension for Azure DevOps: Ed investigated and found this is not a good fit.
• What about getting help from one of our member organizations in the Greater China Region?
  • Language is a big barrier. Not a good fit for peer-level, co release-coordinator role.
  • Still possible to enlist help via Shanghai MSFT team.
• Ed to interview Arjan about the release co-coordinator role in 16:00 - 16:30 CEST late afternoon 2023-04-19.
