[jsr375-experts] Re: Migration from java.net

Aside from a possible replacement host, what can the EG do to help EDR 1 of
JSR 375 before a Renewal Ballot would be due?

The RI Soteria looks in pretty good shape IMO.
Ideally the "embedded" API folder in Soteria should be moved or at least
copied into the "spec-api" repository, whether on java.net (mirrored to
Github) or directly to GitHub is a minor detail.

A few JSRs (like 330, 310 or JSON-P currently in JSR 374) never published a
plain text spec in a separate document, anything they documented is in
JavaDoc so far. It may not be suitable for JSR 375, but the spec document
could be short or left out of an EDR1.

Kind Regards,

Werner
