On 2014-06-21 Keil, Werner voted Yes with the following comment:
I still believe there is very limited use to this technology in a "Cloud" era, and it has outlived its usefulness, but for legacy systems where the Spec Lead (and probably just 1 other EG Member, as all others including Oracle confirmed, the technology is not of interest to them any more) is involved, it is good to have a standard allowing to ease vendor tie-in, assuming there will be enough implementations for this.

On 2014-06-20 IBM voted Yes with the following comment:
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.

On 2014-06-23 Red Hat voted Yes with the following comment:
Red Hat's vote is based on the technical merits of this JSR and is not a vote on the licensing terms.  Red Hat would prefer a licensing model that creates an open arena for everyone, including those not members of the JCP and removes any ability for one individual or vendor to exert undue control over a standard. We are an open source company and hence would like to see such a licensing model for JCP contributions. Note however, that this comment is not necessarily directed at the license terms for this JSR, but is a statement of Red Hat's preferred licensing model.

On 2014-06-23 London Java Community voted Yes with the following comment:
Slightly unusual case in this older JSR coming back up for approval. The spec lead and EG addressed the legacy licensing concerns and we're satisfied that enough vendors in this space make this technology viable for standardisation.
