I've spoken directly with Oracle's Java EE licensing rep on this topic. The reason we made TomEE+ was so we could take the uncertified parts out in order for Oracle to give us our certification. They explicitly said they would not otherwise.
They also checked our website and require that we add the exact phase "NOT Java EE6 Certified" next to TomEE+. JBoss had the same text on their downloads page for their contains-non-passing-code distro. -David On May 4, 2012, at 1:12 PM, Mark Struberg wrote: > I don't think this is correct! > > JBossAS7.0 also had some non web-profile features which were _known_ to be > incomplete/not spec compliant/buggy. > But that was not a problem, because those things are _not_ in the web-profile! > As long as you don't claim JAX-WS or full-profile compatibility it is imo not > a problem. > > It would just be an 'additional' feature which is not officially supported by > the release. > We can of course add in the Readme that > > 'despite being packaged, JAX-WS is not officially part of this TomEE release > and did not pass any EE TCK.' > > > LieGrue > strub > > > > ----- Original Message ----- >> From: David Blevins <[email protected]> >> To: [email protected] >> Cc: >> Sent: Friday, May 4, 2012 10:07 PM >> Subject: Re: JAX-RS in Web Profile >> >> >> On May 4, 2012, at 12:54 PM, Romain Manni-Bucau wrote: >> >>> +1 to add it >>> -1 to split, it will make our build more complicated (again) and our >>> dependency management a mess >> >> Can you clarify on the "split".
