Jakarta EE negotiations between Oracle and The Eclipse Foundation hit a roadblock

The latest update on the negotiations between the Eclipse Foundation and Oracle on Java trademarks was the absolute highlight of last week since the discussion looks like it hit a roadblock. In 2017 Oracle announced the opening up of Java EE and moving it to an open source foundation. Since then, the migration to the Eclipse Foundation has been a long, steady process. Negotiations between The Eclipse Foundation and Oracle continue to take place. The Eclipse Foundation’s Mike Milinkovich posted an update blog on May 3, 2019, regarding the status of Jakarta EE and its community.

How are the negotiations progressing? Have a look here.
