I've produced an updated draft of the specification (including corrections to typos in the new chapter, removal of
watermark, updated licence text) and uploaded it to
https://java.net/downloads/jms-spec/JMS%202.1/JMS21_EDR1_RC2.pdf

The corresponding Javadocs are at
https://jms-spec.java.net/2.1-SNAPSHOT/apidocs/

Further comments and corrections are welcome. I plan to submit this to the JCP as Early Draft 1 on Friday 16th October.
