Welcome to issue number two hundred and three of Hashtag Jakarta EE!

While I am in Canada In December I will visit the Java User Groups in Ottawa and Toronto. Check out the events here:
– December 6 – Ottawa JUG
– December 7 – Toronto JUG

Before that, I will be speaking at the Java User Group in Malmö on November 22. Check out the information about the event, and while you’re at it register. I hope to see as many as possible of you there. Make sure to support your local Java User Group!

I mentioned last week (Hasthag Jakarta EE #202) that there is a restructuring of Jakarta CDI going on. It looks like the ballot in the Jakarta EE Specification Committee for approving this restructuring will not pass. The reason for this is the discussion going on in the Jakarta EE Platform project about how to handle these integrations between specifications.

Information about the processes and the schedule for Jakarta EE 11 can be found on the Jakarta EE 11 page on the Jakarta EE Platform project website.

JakartaOne Livestream 2023 is coming up in a couple of weeks. Check out the amazing speaker lineup, and register today! The schedule with times will be published on Monday, so you can plan your day.

Those of you who have attended the previous editions of JakartaOne Livestream know that we always have a theme of something edible, and a contest to create your version of it. Check out this video to see what the theme of JakartaOne Livestream 2023 will be.
