I was reading Romain's email about the situation being worse as re-certification would be required as the interfaces will have changed. I read that as meaning that each time the interfaces changed a costly re-certification process would be required.
Can something not be JEE-6 and JEE-7 compliant at the same time then? I was hoping by upgrading TomEE to CXF 3 it would retain EE-6 compliance and gain an EE-7 component. Re-certification with an open TCK ought be free..?
