+title: Accepting JavaEnclave to Apache Teaclave (incubating) Proposal
+date: 2022-10-18
+author: The Teaclave PPMC
+---
+
+## Abstract
+
+Teaclave Java TEE SDK is a Java confidential computing programming framework.
+It follows the host-and-enclave partition programming model defined by Intel-SGX SDK.
+Teaclave Java TEE SDK provides an elegant way to divide a java project into host and
+enclave modules, where the enclave module is a provider of a user-defined service
+interface which is similar to the Java SPI model. Teaclave Java TEE SDK could
+help you to develop and build a Java confidential computing project with
+high efficiency.
+
+## Proposal
+
+Teaclave Java TEE SDK is a pure Java SDK for Java confidential computing. It eases
+the interactions between secured and unsecured environment with a few concise APIs.
+From user's aspect, creating an enclave environment and invoking confidential
+computing services would be as simple as invoking SPI services.
+
+### Background
+
+The Teaclave Java TEE SDK project is being actively developed within Alibaba Cloud.
+
+### Rationale
+
+Teaclave Java TEE SDK is a Java confidential computing programming framework.
+The goal of Teaclave is to provide a universal secure computing platform for
+multiple programming languages. Teaclave currently supports Rust, Python and
+WebAssembly, but Java is still missing. Teaclave Java TEE SDK would be an
+important piece of the puzzle.
+
+### Initial Goals
+
+- Transfer the repository to the Apache Incubator under the Teaclave project
+- Code cleanup and more documentation
+
+#### Meritocracy:
+
+Teaclave Java TEE SDK project was originally developed and reviewed by
+Shaojun Wang/Ziyi Lin/Lei Yu/Sanhong Li within Alibaba Cloud.
+We encourage everyone to ask questions and create pull requests for the project.
+
+#### Community:
+
+Teaclave Java TEE SDK was developed and applied within Alibaba Cloud before
+it was donated to Teaclave.
+
+#### Core Developers:
+
+The core developers are:
+- Shaojun Wang (jeffery.wsj@alibaba-inc.com)
+- Ziyi Lin (cengfeng.lzy@alibaba-inc.com)
+
+#### Alignment:
+
+The project is complimentary of Teaclave's TEE backends.
+
+### Known Risks
+
+An exercise in self-knowledge. Risks don't mean that a project is unacceptable.
+If they are recognized and noted, then they can be addressed during incubation.
+
+#### Project Name
+
+Teaclave Java TEE SDK was initially developed and applied within Alibaba Cloud
+as a closed-source project which was called JavaEnclave.
+
+#### Inexperience with Open Source:
+
+Teaclave Java TEE SDK has been reviewed by Mingshen Sun, who is from the Teaclave
+community. He's familiar with The Apache Way for the open-source community.
+
+#### Length of Incubation:
+
+The project will be in incubation with Apache Teaclave (incubating) project.
+
+### Documentation
+
+- Teaclave Java TEE SDK's documentation will be submit to Teaclave PPMC for review
+  by email private@teaclave.apache.org
+
+### Initial Source
+
+- Teaclave Java TEE SDK's source code will be submit to Teaclave PPMC for review
+  by email private@teaclave.apache.org
+
+### Source and Intellectual Property Submission Plan
+
+We will submit a Software Grant for this project later.
+
+#### External Dependencies:
+
+The dependencies have Apache compatible license, which is provided under the
+BSD 2-Clause license and GPL2.0 license. One dependency of Teaclave Java TEE SDK
+is GraalVM SubstraceVM with GPL2.0 license, it's used as the enclave module's
+native image compiler, and Teaclave Java TEE SDK has contributed some patches
+to GraalVM and they had been contained in GraalVM's official releases assets.
+Teaclave Java TEE SDK is dependent on GraalVM's official releases and doesn't
+make any modifications to GraalVM's source code, so there's no legal risk.

+
+#### Cryptography:
+
+N/A
+
+### Required Resources
+
+#### Mailing lists:
+
+The project shares the same mailing list of Teaclave.
+
+#### Git Repositories:
+
+- N/A
+
+#### Issue Tracking:
+
+Same with Teaclave.
+
+#### Other Resources:
+
+N/A
+
+### Initial Committers
+
+- Shaojun Wang (jeffery.wsj@alibaba-inc.com)
+- Ziyi Lin (cengfeng.lzy@alibaba-inc.com)
+- Lei Yu (lei.yul@alibaba-inc.com)
+- Sanhong Li (sanhong.lsh@alibaba-inc.com)
