This too would be a great idea. Perhaps such issues are worth writing a blog entry about?

Reza,
thank you for this insight.
I wonder why Oracle not simply opens the further project management of GlassFish to the community, so we can simply build up our own organizational
structures to keep this valueable open source project alive – possibly with Payara staff as managers?

Officially speaking, yes GlassFish is the RI for Java EE. Practically speaking with how much of the EE 8 work now done by the community, it may soon become a good idea to work with Payara if actively engaged in spec development or evaluation.
The Payara team has always made it clear their goal is to merge as much work back into GlassFish as possible. We are yet to see the same strong commitment from Oracle to supporting the community in moving GlassFish and Java EE 8 forward.
We hope to see such a commitment and tangible effort to back up that commitment some time in the future.

Hey Reza,
Will GF5 be the reference implementation of Java EE 8?
It seemed that Payara contributed back to GF. Is it still the case?
Cheers,
Yannick

You really should look into Payara. I doubt anyone would responsibly advise you to use plain GlassFish for anything other than learning.
Oracle officially stopped supporting GlassFish commercially a while back. Consequently GlassFish is hardly a maintened code base any more. I doubt that will change any time in the future.
