Does anyone have a link to the JSR? I didn't find it via Google...

Hi all
As you all know I am also actively joining the current configuration JSR.
Summarizing the state can be summarized as follows:
- The API as taken over from microprofile.io will be taken as a starting
point. We are discussing a few features that also come with Tamaya, overall
I don't think the final API will change drastically.
- The JSR must select one "official" reference implementation, which
must be ALv2 based. The JSRs page will reference multiple reference
implementation though, also including Tamaya.
- Target is having the JSR finished in 6 months. I think double the time
and we have a realistic timeframe, but let's see ;-)
I will soon add a module in the sandbox, where we implement the new API.
Now thinking about this activities I had a somehow crazy idea:
- Originally one objective of Tamaya has been to drive forces to get a
config JSR up and running. That is now the case.
- We still would like to have more attention and being the "official" RI
for the config JSR would be an interesting chance to get that.
- MP as also now the JSR are doing structurally the same thing. We have
some additional features present (some of them like the
*ConfigurationContext
*are basically not necessary at all).
So my thinking was, how can best profit from that situation:
- Obviously offer our services to implement the API (already done).
- But we could go *one step further *by enabling all our extensions to
work with the new API. If we also get filters as interception mechanism
into the JSR (which I think should be possible and makes sense), *building
all our extensions on top of the JSR instead of the Tamaya API *is a no
brainer.
- The *ultimate step* would be to make the JSR the center of our
project, thus basically "deprecating" the former Tamaya APIs. We still
would support them by a small compatibility-layer, of course (implemented
as extension).
What are the advantages and why this discussion?
- Depending on we would agree to support also the ultimate step, I can
discuss with the JSR EG that Tamaya might get THE official RI.
- All our extensions and integrations would also work with other
implementations, which would us put in a similar position that Deltaspike
had for CDI. Given that I expect to have a braoder target in the developer
community and maybe also attract additional people to join us in a later
step.
WDYT?
