After this first release, further development will continue, adding new features, performance improvements, a test harness, and a programming guide to supplement the API documentation. 4 February 2003 - JavaWorld article about the JCP mentions Jakarta's involvementJason Hunter, the previous Expert Committee representative for the ASF, was recently quoted in depth in a JavaWorld article about the JCP. As you may or may not know, the Apache Software Foundation has been a driving force in changing the JCP business model to accept open source practices. Please read the entire article, but of the many great quotes that Jason provided, this one stands out quite a bit because it reflects strongly on one of Jakarta's most active projects: Chiefly, as a result of the open source community's increased involvement, those major JCP executive committee players are starting to see a need to mind the broader Java community's interests as well. "The issue now, with open source and community focus," notes Apache's Hunter, "is increasingly on JSR management." Consider the case of JSR 154, the Java Servlet Specification. "According to the JCP rules, the spec lead makes the decisions, and the expert group members are there to advise," says Hunter. "In JSR 154, there has been a consistent pattern of expert opinion going one way and the spec lead, a newly appointed Sun representative, going exactly the opposite. That's okay once in a while, but how do you build a community where the majority of the expert group, people who have been there for years and are truly the world experts [on servlets], are being second-guessed without explanation?" When the servlet spec comes up for the executive committee's vote, will Apache's representative vote to approve it? Don't hold your breath, advises Hunter. "Apache won't support a technology that was created without community support." 3 February 2003 - Commons Digester 1.4 ReleasedThe Jakarta Commons Team is pleased to announce the 1.4 release of Digester from the Apache Software Foundation.
