On 2002-10-10 IBM voted Yes with the following comment:
We are pleased to support this JSR as a first step toward J2EE support for distributed fragment caching/assembly.  Most importantly, this JSR introduces new architectural considerations for applications that exploit distributed fragments.

We believe further work is needed, starting with refinements to the underlying technology (Edge Side Includes).  We look forward to working with the industry in this regard, then to working within the JCP to revise J2EE support accordingly.

IBM's vote is based on the technical merits of this JSR and is not a vote on the licensing terms.  IBM supports licensing models that create an open and level playing field by allowing third parties to create independent implementations of Java Specifications and that do not allow individuals or companies to exercise unnecessary control for proprietary advantage.  We support open source as a licensing model for contributions in the JCP, and would hope others will support this direction. This comment is not necessarily directed at the current business or license terms for this JSR, however, it is a statement of IBM's preferred licensing model.
