That sounds pretty good to me, seems like an interesting challenge. I
have got some free time next week where I can look into it.
I just have two smaller questions first:
* Is this https://github.com/apache/tomee indeed the official
repository for tomee?
* Which branch should I start off on? I would intuitively go for main,
but maybe you have some other branch for 10.x development?
Best regards, Benedict

If you want to dig into this issue a bit, that could be helpful:
-https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMEE-4166
Note on expectations; I don't think anyone would be expecting a fully
functional PR that can run that new TCK setup. Most likely it'd be an exercise
of reading the TCK setup guide, a bit of poking around code, and a series of
emails as to what you're finding. With enough discussion we could probably all
put our heads together on how to actually get it setup and that would give the
guidance needed to start sending PRs.
How does that sound?

Hi David,
sorry for my delayed answer I have been pretty busy the last couple of days.
To get back to your question, I mostly rely on (specification-wise) JAX-RS,
CDI, JPA and Transactions. I might use Websockets and Bean-Validation sometimes.
I mostly use the default implementation provided with tomee, except for JPA
(Eclipselink isntead of OpenJPA).
I have some reasonable experience with these, but mostly from a user side.
I hope that answers your question.
Best regards, Benedict

Hi Benedict,
Any thoughts? Definitely don’t want to overload you.
Happy to find something that fits with how much time you have.
Thanks again for the interest in helping the project.

Hi Benedict!
Asking about what you use from a high level as we of course have integration
code with every specification and there are 30 of them, so wanted to point you
towards the integration code for a spec you might actually use and have some
experience in / find relevant to you.
Help passing Jakarta EE compliance tests is definitely helping where it counts
the most. It’s also the hardest work, but most rewarding.
We should still find a couple small wins so you can get that joy of seeing a PR
merged, but after that do you use any of these specs?

The Java EE TCK was a huge monolith. Finally in EE 10 some of those TCKs have
been split out into brand new TCKs. The impact of that is 20 years of
experience means nothing as each now has all new framework/setup code, so we’re
all at an equal disadvantage :)
Anyone who takes one of those tasks, including me, is basically going to have
to learn the TCK setup for each spec and set it up brand new.

Hi David,
that is actually a pretty good question. If we where speaking about say JPA or
CDI I could tell you immediately what features I like the most and what I would
improve.
With tomee it is quiet different though. It is simply a app-server for me that
provides the implementations and runtime for my Java/Jakarta-EE apps. And I
think it is very good at that.
So I would say I could benefit from anything that brings tomee closer to
support newer Versions of JakartaEE. I do not really know what that means on a
level of smaller tasks I could contribute though.
Best regards, Benedict

Hi Benedict,
First, thank you for offering your time to the project. This is how open
source should work and rarely does. You already stand out :)
The most important thing is we work together get you feeling a sense of being
personally invested in the project. Any small contribution that gets you
feeling like you had some impact grows into bigger things over time.
So while there are endless things we need, especially given the lack of
resources, we should find some small quick wins that you might find enjoyable
and grow it from there.
Something that brings you immediate benefit is good. What features of TomEE do
you rely on the most?

Hello,
I am quite new to this mailing-list so I thought I would introduce myself.
My name is Benedict and I am from Germany-Saarland. I work at a local
software-company as a software-architect and in that role maintain our JavaEE,
soon to be JakartaEE Framework.
We use tomee as an ApplicationServer for almost a decade now and were always
happy with it.
So to give back a bit I thought I could contribute to the project, especially
as it seems low on resources at the moment. Unfortunately it seems like most of
the Information about contributing is rather stale. So my question is, what is
the best way to contribute to tomee at the moment?
Best regards,
Benedict Eisenkrämer
