Reza,
Thanks. I have logged
http://java.net/jira/browse/JAVAEE_SPEC-2 .
(If you want to make other proposals at the same time, that's fine by me. I think JDBC and JavaMail may be slightly
different in that the Java EE spec doesn't require a database or a mail server to be built-in to the application server
in the way that it requires a JMS provider to be.)
Incidentally, I also logged these issues for EJB 3.2 back in November on behalf of the JMS expert group
http://java.net/jira/browse/EJB_SPEC-41
http://java.net/jira/browse/EJB_SPEC-42
http://java.net/jira/browse/EJB_SPEC-43
http://java.net/jira/browse/EJB_SPEC-44
(These all are dependencies of the corresponding issues in the JMS issue tracker)
