Executive Committee home page (for EC members only)

The Executive Committee (EC) is the group of Members guiding the evolution of Java technology in the Java Community Process (JCP). The EC represents both major stakeholders and a representative cross-section of the Java Community. The EC is responsible for approving the passage of specifications through key points of the JCP and for reconciling discrepancies between specifications and their associated test suites. Originally there were two ECs (the SE/EE EC and the ME EC); these were merged with JCP 2.9.

For more information about the function of the Executive Committee, please refer to the Java Community Process Document and the Executive Committee's Standing Rules.

The Executive Committee is expected to:

• Select JSRs for development within the JCP.
• Approve draft specifications for Public Review.
• Give final approval to completed Specifications and their associated RIs and TCKs.
• Decide appeals of first-level TCK test challenges.
• Review and approve maintenance releases.
• Approve transfer of maintenance duties between Members.
• Provide guidance to the PMO.

The following are summaries of EC activity by year, including EC meeting attendance and voting records.
