Markus,
Kindly go and check Jersey org on GitHub and see for yourself, who is the core member of the Jersey dev group. We always keep it up to date.

Maybe he likes to work fulltime on the project, who knows, then he needs a fulltime uplink accepting and merging his pullrequests. So I interpret his question as: Who is this permanent person and when will that person merge that pullrequests. Open source lives from open management, hence this is a valid question. If it can only be answered by disclosing Oracle secrets then there is definitively something wrong with the openess of the Jersey project. ;-)

It is an essential number to others to see whether Oracle is a good steward for Java or not. Not providing a number in fact *does* make people believe that there really is nobody working fulltime on this open source project (despite the hopeful truth), and I doubt that this is the image that Oracle wants to publish, does it? ;-)
