Hi all,
Here's a quick update on the progress:
• Security: In the making (passing tests and TCK):
https://github.com/apache/tomee/pull/2632. Markus did some tests with the
branch in his environment and it looks quite good.
• CXF: Needs to be released (4.1.1).
• OWB: Released and integrated.
JPA seems to be the main thing missing right now. We can still ship without JPA
3.2 compliance in OpenJPA, but it would be nice to have - the OpenJPA folks
will likely need some more time though.
In the meantime, once Security is integrated, we could start looking into
platform TCK coverage a bit.
Gruß
Richard
