Hey community,
Oracle is trying to open up a new JSR for the Portlet 2.0 Bridge.
Originally this was part of the JSR-301 but there was a slight
misunderstanding of the intentions of the specs regarding release
dates. To make a long story short, instead of doing both the
specifications for Portlet 1.0 and 2.0 as part of the JSR, it's being
split up. The Project lead will be Michael Freedman who is a MyFaces
committer and has been very active on the Apache MyFaces Portlet
Bridge project and he was also the spec-lead for the JSR-301. The
Apache implementations of these specifications are being written as
the eventual R.I.'s for the bridge projects.
In any case, should Apache MyFaces put its vote in for the formation
of this JSR? Understand that this is not a vote for a project or
spec, just to allow the JCP to start a JSR to support this project. I
have gotten word from Apache that this can be done if a community
decides to support it. Since the Apache MyFaces Portlet Bridge is
being developed as the eventual R.I. and Oracle has been very open to
aiding the OpenSource development of this bridge here at Apache, I
think it's a good opportunity for us to support the JCP and, in
particular, the Portlet Bridge Projects.
Vote:
[ ] +1 to support the formation of a new JSR for the Portlet Bridge 2.0
[ ] +0 don't really care, it's just a silly green checkmark on the ballot
[ ] -1 don't put the green checkmark on the ballot, Apache shouldn't
support the JCP
Thanks,
Scott O'Bryan
