Hashtag Jakarta EE #328

Welcome to issue number three hundred and twenty-eight of Hashtag Jakarta EE!
In just about a week, Open Community eXperience is happening in Brussels, Belgium. The four days between April 21 and April 23 are packed with talks from amazing speakers delivering keynotes, regular talks, workshops, and BOFs. In addition to all the scheduled content, we have the hallway track. This is where it happens. Spontaneous conversations about all kinds of topics just appear out of nowhere. The hallway track is by far the most valuable aspect of attending conferences.
My talk titled The Past, Preseent, and Future of Enterprise Java – with Jakarta EE is scheduled for Wednesday. When I am not attending other talks or roaming the hallway, I can be found staffing the Eclipse Foundation booth in the exhibition area.
In the Jakarta EE Platform call this week, we discussed what that would be needed for Jakarta NoSQL to be included as one of the specifications in Jakarta EE 12. There is still some reluctance among some of our members to include this specification, so please make your voice heard if you want to see Jakarta NoSQL in Jakarta EE 12. If you have some extra time on your hand, you can also step in and help the project address the issues that the platform project has requested to strenghen its position as a candidate for inclusion.
