The Java EE development that we often do is actually in compliance with the Java EE specification, so how are these specifications developed?
This would have to mention the JCP organization.
JCP (Java Community process) can be translated into the Java Community process, which was founded by Sun Company in 1998. JCP gives the public an opportunity to participate in the development and maintenance of the Java platform. So how do we get involved, so we have to mention the JSR (Java specification request Java standard requests).
A JSR is a Java standard request that can be initiated by a registered member of JCP, and then passes through multiple stages that may eventually become the standard Java uses.
Can be a standard to go to the JCP Expert Group's ruling, the following sentence from the Oracle official website, see Oracle in JCP important position.
Oracle's role in the Java Community process
as a Java Community Process executive members, Oracle participates in the development of 80 Java specification proposals (JSR) and hosts several important JSR proposals.
