 ABOUT THE JAVA COMMUNITY PROCESS (JCP) EXECUTIVE COMMITTEES 
Under the JCP 2.11 rules, the EC has resized. In 2021 and going forward, there will be 11 Ratified Seats, 
4 Elected Seats, 2 Associate Seats and the permanent seat held by Oracle America. Members serve 2-year terms 
that are staggered so that 8 or 9 of the 17 seats are normally up for ratification/election each year. 
 The EC members guide the evolution of the Java technologies. The EC represents a cross-section 
of both major stakeholders and other members of the Java Community. Duties are: select JSRs for 
development, approve draft Specifications for Public Review, approve Final Specifications, review 
TCK appeals, approve Maintenance revisions and possibly defer some features to a new JSR, 
approve transfer of maintenance duties between members and provide guidance to the Program 
Management Office (PMO). For more information on the EC, see the 
Executive Committee Info page.
