Bill, Linda, here are some news from Greg Luck about JCache :

*"Antonio*
*
*
*As to status we submitted our draft to the JCP in February. We have been
in legal stuff since then which should be wrapping up this week now that
Software AG and Oracle are finally in agreement. *
*
*
*You should see the spec come out in draft in the next week or so.*
*
*
*It is still planned to be in EE7. Since we got delayed by legal stuff but
EE7 is also delayed we are still Ok.*
*
*
*In terms of the web profile I think it makes sense. You could include a
web caching filter or similar capability. Ehcache has ehcache-web for
example, OsCache had a cache taglet and most web frameworks these days
include caching."*

So I think it makes sense to hava JCache in EE 7 and hopefully see it
integrated more in EE 8 with the other specs (e.g. default JPA second level
cache, or web cache...). So I'm in favour to add it to EE 7 as well as the
web profile.

Which brings up the same related question "Is the Web Profile getting too
big ?". If we make war packaging a first class citizen (see a previous
thread), then there is less and less distinction between full and web
profile.
