This is not FUD, this is from the java.net front page (https://home.java.net/):

 

"We will also be closing the forge in the next 18-24 months."

 

There will be not other infrastructure behind java.net:

 

" the forge will continue to operate normally for one year, to allow project owners ample time to plan the migration of active projects"

Hi Markus,

Where is this coming from?

 

Anyway, we should only try to cross the bridge once we get there. I’m not aware of any immediate plans to shut down java.net. Besides, java.net is just a domain name, it can live on other infrastructure should Oracle really decide to move away from the current infrastructure. Yet, at this time this whole discussion is moot, the only reason I’m responding is to prevent unnecessary spread of FUD.

Santiago,

 

since Oracle shuts <http://java.net/> java.net down, will JAX-RS-SPEC move to a different facility?
