JCP Open Discussions ... heads up

Hi everyone,

For those that are not subscribed to jcp-open@apache.org there is a  
discussion in progress about the current state of the Open Letter to  
Sun that Apache put out in the public a few months ago.

The discussion is centered around Apache's participation in the Java  
Community Process and specifically around license terms for the  
specifications and TCKs that are used to validate our implementations.

At this point there is no formal policy that is being considered.   
The discussion is about how Apache should respond to the JCP and  
specifically Sun about the their lack of response to the Open  
Letter.  Since the outcome of these policies may have a significant  
impact on Geronimo as well as other Apache projects that implement  
solutions to the specifications from the JSR as well as validate them  
against a TCK I advise you to take a peek at the list.

The mailing list is:  jcp-open-subscribe@apache.org

Cheers.

I guess everyone should look at the threads to make that determination :)

Matt,

Actually I do believe a formal policy is being considered...and is under
discussion.
