Hi David, great! I accepted your nomination, and now it needs to get accepted by the JCP PMO. They might have additional questions for you.
I sent you an invitation to the weekly EG calls. We have a call every
Tuesday. If you didn't receive the calendar invite, please let me know ...
there have been problems in the past where someone didn't get the invite
for some inexplicable reason ...
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind regards

Hi Scott,
This is great news. Speaking for myself, I would be honored to
participate
and host the JSR 362 RI and TCK here at Apache Portals. Of course, we
need
consensus, and we can eventually call for a vote to formalize the 3.0
hosting and implementation here at Pluto. I see it as a continuation
of the
work done here previously at Pluto. I agree that it would be best to
host
the initial work on Github so that spec writers outside the Pluto
team can
contribute early on. As we progress, we can of course bring on new
Portals
committers to the project. The Apache way is considered a
meritocracy, and
committers are voted in by their peers based on their contributions
and
community efforts. New projects can also be incubated, an alternative
process for bringing in new code and committers.
http://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html
Regarding the TCK, there have been some licensing issues in the first
two
specs that have not made it possible to check it into an Apache
repository.
I believe its up to the EG team leads to decide on licensing.

I am interesting in becoming a member of the EG. I was a member of
the 1.0
and 2.0 EGs as well.
Regarding JIRA, you can sign up for an account here:

Hi,
I would like to announce the Portlet Specification 3.0
development
effort
to the Apache Pluto project.
In the way of introduction - my name is Scott Nicklous, and I
work
for IBM
in the WebSphere Portal development group. Late last year,
there was
thought about an effort to create the next version of the
portlet
specification. I submitted a proposal to the JCP organization,
it got
accepted, and now we have a JSR 362 Portlet Specification 3.0
effort
up and
running.
The specification effort is at in an early stage. Actually, the
JSR
362 EG
is currently talking about errata for the JSR 286 specification
that
need
to be addressed. We haven't yet begun discussion of new topics,
so
now
would still be a good time to get involved. We have several web
sites
that
you can visit to get an overview of what we want to accomplish
and
what we
have done so far.
* The JCP organization main page for JSR 362:
http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=362
* On the JSR 362 project page, you can find high-level bullet
items
of
proposed topics: https://java.net/projects/portletspec3.
* For now, at least, we will be developing the Portlet
Specification
3
interfaces using Github as a source repository:
https://github.com/msnicklous/portletspec3 . We want to start
with
the
repository for the interface code on github because several of
the
JSR 362
EG members (including myself!) have not been active on Apache
and in
particular are not committers to the Apache Portals project ,
but are
active on github. Being hosted on github will make it easier
for all
EG
members to make contributions.
With the Apache Portals project hosting the Pluto Reference
Implementation
and interface code for the previous JSR 286 & JSR 168 versions
of the
portlet specification, I think it would be very good if members
of
the
Apache Portals project would participate in the development of
the
Portlet
Specification Version 3.0.
I would also like to address hosting for the JSR 362 work.
There is a
near-term and longer-term component to this question.
In the near term there is need for hosting the evolving
interface
code that
will eventually become the Portlet Specification 3.0 interface.
To
begin
with, there are changes to be made that involve clarifications
and
corrections to the JSR 286 specification. Later, changes and
additions
will need be made to address new technical themes. The
interface code
for
the current JSR 286 specification is hosted in the Apache
Portals
project
SVN repository under portlet_spec/portlet-api_2.0_spec. The JSR
362
interface code is currently hosted on github, but eventually I
think
it
should be hosted under the Apache Portals project, since
versions 1.0
& 2.0
of the spec are already hosted here. I would be interested in
your
ideas
about when & how the interface code should be hosted on Apache.
In the longer term, I would like to explore the possibility of
hosting the
JSR 362 Portlet Specification 3.0 reference implementation and
TCK
under
the Pluto project. Would you be interested in hosting this and
participating in the development of the JSR 362 RI & TCK?
Since the
JSR
362 effort is at an early stage, it will probably be some time
before
any
work would start, but I wanted get your ideas on this early on.
There would be several ways of getting involved:
1) You can follow the deliberations of the JSR 362 EG by
keeping up
to date
with the project website and subscribing to the JSR 362
Observers
mailing
list at: https://java.net/projects/portletspec3/lists . The
jsr362-observers list is open to all, and all posts to the
jsr362-experts
list are automatically mirrored to the observers list, so you
won't
miss
anything by subscribing to that list. The project site also
hosts the
current version of the spec itself along with accompanying
documentation
(have alook at the wiki and download pages on that site).
2) You may wish to become members of the JSR 362 Expert group.
There
are
certain formalities involved, since JCP processes have to be
followed, but
if you are interested, I would be happy to explore this
possibility
with
you.
3) You can post your ideas for new features here, or send them
to me.
I see
that there is an issue tracker for Pluto, but I have to admit
that I
haven't examined the items to determine whether it contains new
feature
requests or potential spec corrections that the JSR 362 EG
needs to
take
into account (I'm new to Apache, so please bear with me).
I would be very interested in your ideas for improvements and
new
features
for the Portlet Specification 3.0 and also in your views on
the
organizational topics mentioned above.
I hope this mail finds your interest, and I look forward to
working
with
you.
