General Minutes
- Welcome Somay Nakhal to the Committee!
- We need to start having formal agendas before each meeting (MV to create next one)
- We’d like to have a venue with free WiFi for all (TG to investigate possibilities)
Update from Face to Face (F2F) EC meeting from BE
- Hosted at Goldman Sachs in Jersey City, USA
- Good to put names to faces, made following JSR-348 WG meeting run more easily
- LJC ‘Adopt a JSR’ program was well received
- Lots of support for JSR-310
- JSR-348
- Main issue was about ballot stuffing. The PMO will investigate and act appropriately if there is evidence of suspicious voting.
- SE and ME committees will merge (partly as ME committee rarely makes quorum).
- 24 seats + chair is the new target, down from 32 today, ‘extra’ seats will die a natural death.
- Java ME
- Hardware baseline – so price point drops over time? In our opinion this does not match what the industry is doing.
- Code line is currently based off 1.4.2, they’re proposing to do an ME7, base lined against SE 7 but with some features (like invokedynamic) will be removed.
- ME seems to be heading towards the embedded space.
- ME for SE developers LJC session by Oracle to help us gain insight into this area of standards (MV to organise).
- ‘Adopt a JSR program’ is vital. We shall proceed by:
- Update java.net with our JCP status (MB to follow up)
