It has been discussed that jini.org will serve as a "information portal", with links to docs, specs, implementations, the starter kit, and so forth. The Apache project will first be the center of coding of the starter kit, and other useful generic tools. It has not yet been decided what exactly should happen to the specifications and related process (JDP). Many people like the JDP, but also recognizes the overhead needed to keep it running. One alternative that has been discussed is to let the Jini TLP manage the JDP (with a couple of amendments) as well. My personal stance is that it is an issue that is not urgent, and can be discussed through incubation. > > * Mentor > > - Geir Magnusson Jr. > > Lately popular opinion seems to be that it'd be good if there were at least > three mentors. Any others? Previously, both Alex Karasulu and Gianugo Rabellino have expressed willingness to mentor this. I know Alex is on vacation, and have very limited online access at the moment...
