Any updates on item (iii)? Can we just include the notice for EA-1
and revisit for the next release?
My interpretation of Geir's response is that we can't distribute stuff
with this restriction, so no, we have to wait until the conditions are
changed at which point the existing jar under vote will be OK.

Looks like a problem.
I sent a note to legal-discuss about (iii).
I'll work on setting up a new release candidate.

David,
While searching the JSR-317 draft for direction regarding early
access naming, I found that the notice (page 2) includes the
clauses below, notably item iii. Does clause iii need to be added
to the NOTICE in the EA jar? Also, should the Geronimo EA NOTICE
use "JPA 2.0 EARLY ACCESS" instead of simply "JPA 2.0" in order to
meet clause ii?
<jsr-317 draft>
NOTICE
...
2.Distribute implementations of the Specification to third parties
for their testing and evaluation use, provided that any such
implementation:
(i) does not modify, subset, superset or otherwise extend the
Licensor Name Space, or include any public or protected packages,
classes, Java interfaces, fields or methods within the Licensor
Name Space other than those required/authorized by the
Specification or Specifications being implemented;
(ii)is clearly and prominently marked with the word "UNTESTED" or
"EARLY ACCESS" or "INCOMPATIBLE"
or "UNSTABLE" or "BETA" in any list of available builds and in
proximity to every link initiating its download, where the list or
link is under Licensee's control; and
(iii)includes the following notice:
"This is an implementation of an early-draft specification
developed under the Java Community Process (JCP) and is made
available for testing and evaluation purposes only. The code is
not compatible with any specification of the JCP."

I've been working with the OpenJPA project to develop the jpa 2.0
spec jar in our spec repository. They are ready for their first
early access milestone release.
I've staged the release here:
http://people.apache.org/~djencks/staging-repo/specs/geronimo-jpa_2.0_spec/org/apache/geronimo/specs/geronimo-jpa_2.0_spec/1.0-EA-1/
The svn location is here:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/geronimo/specs/tags/geronimo-jpa_2.0_spec-1.0-EA-1
I haven't staged the site. I don't think its necessary for a
early access release, but will reconsider on request.
I ran rat on the project, and the autochecking thinks the legal
files are ok.
Vote open for 72 hours.
