Top of mind for Jared, James

• 18 CCRs from Payara still being worked through
  • 9 remaining requiring updates
• Jared out this week
• New release schedule published https://jakartaee.github.io/platform/jakartaee12/JakartaEE12ReleasePlan

Jakarta EE 11

• Jakarta EE Platform team has worked on the Jakarta EE 11 Retrospective
  • Issue: https://github.com/jakartaee/platform/issues/1109
  • Actions have not been flushed out from the retrospective yet

Jakarta EE 12

• M6 week 3 of 6 starts this week (M6 ends Aug 15)

• Core Profile progress
  • CDI
    • Beta1
  • JSON-B
    • 3.1.0 M1 is now out
  • JSON-P
    • No M1 yet, but is planned
  • REST
    • No M1 yet
    • We should point out that the platform itself has a stake too, not just the implementations of the Jakarta REST specification.
    • Email asking for committers to confirm they still would like to be involved https://www.eclipse.org/lists/rest-dev/msg00395.html
      • I’ve only heard back from 2 people so far, but will reach out to who I can directly.
• MicroProfile
  • The community has asked why we are waiting for MicroProfile to at least get something into Jakarta EE for Config.
  • Is not having a Config API a blocker for Jakarta EE 12?
    • NoSQL would like to have it, but we believe they worked around a requirement for it.
