Hi folks,

I would like to propose a small change to our Java packaging guidelines. The change is simple: remove whole "Packaging and using EE APIs" section [1]. As far as I can tell, there is currently no Java package fully conforming with this section in Fedora. I also think that from maintenance perspective, it's better not to have our hands tied with guidelines (in such less important matters), but to be able act accordingly to current situation in Fedora. The matter of which package should provide which EE API can be discussed here on java-devel ML. We can easily reevaluate our decision before every Fedora release, without need to change the guidelines every time.

Please let me know what you think of this proposal. We can arrange java-sig IRC meeting, or we can discuss and vote here. I personally prefer the latter option.

Thanks,
Michal

Also +1 from me. Assuming only the FPC may alter guidelines in the wiki, please raise a FPC ticket proposing the change and it should get done at the meeting on Thursday.
