“With Jakarta EE, we are able to deliver a set of specifications that are free for implementation and are available under an entirely new licensing regime which is far more open and cost-effective than what was available under Oracle and the JCP,” Mike Milinkovich, executive director of the Eclipse Foundation, told ITPro Today. “It is our belief that this is now going to free us and our community to deliver an enormous amount of value and innovation going forward.”
