To give a more detailed view / update from the spec tck party regarding activation and mail:
(A) Geronimo Activation 2.0 After a first milestone (M1) and some additional fixes after running the activation TCK [1] and related signatures tests, we are now passing them. JL prepared a release artifact (1.0.0), which is currently under vote. During the tck work, we found some inconsistency / unspecified behaviour of "normalizeMimeTypeParameter" of ActivationDataFlavor. While this method is tested in the TCK on the basis of the reference implementation neither the spec itself nor the javadoc are really clear about the "right" return value. At the moment, we adjusted it to pass the TCK test in question. There is an ongoing discussion at dev@geronimo if this is a desired behaviour or if a system property should be introduced in order to reduce the possibility of breaking some users. (B) Geronimo Mail 2.0 / 2.1 The current mail impl has some TCK failures. It seems, that we need to do some additional work to get it compliant with the standalone mail tck [3]. The signature tests are failing for Java 11 but are fine with Java 8 [4] due to some usage of Object#finalize() and missing annotations (only available in Java 9+) in the Geronimo implementation. While it is not that important for EE9, we need to keep it in mind for EE10. We currently pass 166 out of 321 mail tck tests [5]. I guess, we need to give it some more love to get the numbers up and finally get it to pass the mail tck. The good thing is, that we already pass the javamail tests for TomEE [6].
