Discussion concluded some time ago on changing the name of the project to
Apache TomEE. The consensus is clear to move ahead with the name change and in
the weeks since the discussion, no other views have been expressed, it's time
for an official vote.
To do this we need a resolution to:
a) Rename the TLP from OpenEJB to TomEE
and since our official changes[1] give room for going beyond EJB, it would be
good to update them to explicitly mention the Java Enterprise Edition:
b) enterprise application containers and services based on, but not limited
to the Enterprise JavaBeans Specification and Java Enterprise Edition
Specifications
Consider the vote for these two items "a" and "b" above.
The resolution for which will look something like, if not identical to:
WHEREAS, the Project Management Committee of the Apache OpenEJB
Project has chosen by vote to recommend a change of name to Apache
TomEE and revision of its charges to include implementation of the
Java Enterprise Edition, and
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors is receipt of this and deems it to be
in the best interests of the Foundation and consistent with the
Foundation's propose;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Project Management Committee
(PMC), heretofore known as "The Apache OpenEJB Project" be hereby
known as the "The Apache TomEE Project", and
BE IT FURHER RESOLVED, that the Apache TomEE Project be and hereby is
responsible for enterprise application containers and services based
on, but not limited to the Enterprise JavaBeans Specification and Java
Enterprise Edition Specifications.
Let's give this 72 hours to vote, then I'll put it to the board for inclusion
in the board meeting on the 19th. They'll likely adjust the legal wording, but
not the intent.
And, of course, it's never too late for someone to say "stop the show".
There's a meeting every month.
