Request to join "Java LDAP Client API" JSR EG on behalf of Apache

[Ersin Er <er...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I am a PMC member and committer of the Apache Directory Project.

A new effort for a new standard Java LDAP Client API has started at
JCP. As far as I know there is not JSR number yet determined. The
effort is managed here:

https://java-ldap-api.dev.java.net/

First, I should ask if it's possible to represent ASF on an EG with
more than one individual. If so I am a volunteer. Otherwise there are
better candidates in our team (like Alex Karasulu and Emmanuel
Lecharny) who have been more involved with the technology related to
the new effort.

Thanks.

Yes.  It will be ultimately up to the spec lead, actually.  We should  
decide first (here, on this list) who is interested in participating,  
and then ask if we can have that number.  if so, we're done.  if not,  
then we have a group here at apache that discusses things, and the  
subset of that group that the spec lead allows to represent us simply  
brings the consensus view to the EG.
