It's important to note that the JDP is not a process for *developing* standards, but for *approving* them. The JDP is a backend decision process, not a frontend development process. Most of the specifications that have been approved under the JDP were in fact developed within the same project that did the initial (and in many cases, still the only) implementation.
I believe that this is actually a major structural cause for not having other implementations of the standard. Thus, and as pointed out by other people as well, if the goal of the Jini community really is to have independent implementations, the Jini standards should be managed by a separate body.
