Hi James,

Oracle communities define the profile with a reference implementation, which is then tested using a Technology Compatibility Kit (TCK). This TCK is then offered under license and governed by regulations defined here:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/index-137188.html

The license includes non-disclosure policies, but you can be assured when something claims to be officially certified under the TCK it has met all of the defined requirements.

This will also be the case for JEE 7. We are really close to last JEE 6 release of Apache TomEE 1.7.0, after which we will concentrate on defining the JEE 7 roadmap in as much detail as possible for Apache TomEE 2.0.0.

As most of the work is done by volunteers or companies dedicating their own time to the project I guess that it us paying Apache 'in kind' to get a certified open source version.

Apache TomEE 2.0.0 will be JEE 7 certified and include as many up to date technologies as possible on that path - That will include the most recent CXF version at the time.

Andy.

So are Apache paying Oracle to get certified?

Actually that's a bit worse. TomEE is certified by Oracle as JavaEE
compliant. We can't be JavaEE 7 certified yet but if we upgrade any spec
we'll not be JavaEE 6 certified anymore cause API signatures are checked in
the certification process.

Hi,

They can be used. TomEE needs to be compiled on with JDK 6 tough. Usually
Java EE 7 features rely on the JDK 7 features. These things don't work on
JDK 6. In order to be certified Java EE 6, we need to support JDK 6. That
means that the TomEE source code uses no Java 7 (or Java 8) goodness yet.

[]s,
Thiago.

Why is it that something EE 7 compliant cannot be used in something EE
6
compliant then?

The JIRA Roadmap page appears inaccurate at best so I have to ask
here
-
what plans do you have to ship a TomEE with CXF 3.0 included?

Thanks,

James
