Jakarta EE Town Hall Part 1
summary
Roadmap notes say Eclipse GlassFish 5.1 targets shipping on December 14 GlassFish 5.1 as a Java EE 8–compatible release, with 39 projects onboarded (~10–13.5M lines of code) and 160 new committers. The spec process shifts to code-first with required compatible implementations, open-source TCKs and self-certification, but the contributed TCK today is a monolithic TCK on an old harness and must be split and modernized. Contributor and committer agreements receive IP updates and Eclipse membership is required for trademarked compatibility.
