Hi, Just before Christmas Oracle played "Secret Santa" and published the results of its new Java EE survey:
https://blogs.oracle.com/theaquarium/entry/java_ee_8_community_survey2. The document https://java.net/projects/javaee-spec/downloads/download/Java%20EE%20Survey%20Results%20December%202016.pdf summarizes and details the results on a per-question basis. See for yourself. Configuration ranking 4th place once again after it was already among the highest of the previous one (or similar surveys by DZone) should boost efforts to standardize it by Dmitry quite a bit I hope. "We’ll move forward with the revised Java EE 8 proposal." also sounds like what was announced at JavaOne shold be seen in concrete form, e.g. by announcing a Config JSR at least in very early 2017. Regards, Werner
