Hi Oliver/all,
Interesting point, thanks for the initiative (a more coordinated effort by
the PMO currently does not seem a priority under JCP.next, but several
other mostly Oracle lead JSRs did that on GitHub, plus every notable JSR
that's either active right now or just finished also use GitHub as their
main repositories)
While we saw some people also actively involved in the JCP (even former
Spec Leads) leave Pivotal recently is it safe to assume you have no such
plans in the forseable future?;-)
There is no JSR proposal for JPA under the Java EE 8 Umbrella, and while
still possible, I guess anything other than a MR would have to start soon
to still make it there.
Kind Regards,
