** JSRs OF INTEREST **
---------------------------------
-JSR 73, Java Data Mining Specification (JDM), is now in the Final
Approval Ballot. Significant enhancements and clarifications have been
made to the specification and the proposed final draft includes a Web
Services interface for JDM with XML Schema and WSDL.  This JSR  provides
a framework for performing common data mining operations, while
facilitating the introduction of new or non-standard mining algorithms.
To facilitate public exchange of ideas on JDM, a new project on java.net
is getting started:
datamining at https://datamining.dev.java.net/,
providing a discussion forum, announcements, and document sharing among
Java Data Mining users.
You can view the JSR here: http://jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=73 .

-JSR 240, JSLEE v1.1, held its kick-off meeting in Dallas on 25 May. The
expert group identified the key priorities for JSLEE evolution. Some of
the key priorities discussed include Resource Adapter Architecture,
JSLEE and J2EE Integration, JSLEE relevance to other standard bodies,
Profile Updates and Service examples.  The expert group also decided to
close the JSR's to new experts at the end of June. If you are planning
to attend the 2004 JavaOne Conference, stop by the JSLEE booth and check
out the JSLEE SIP (JSR 32) demo from the Japanese team.  To view JSR 240
