Announcing Jakarta MVC 2.0 - Ivar Grimstad

When JSR 371 was dropped from the scope of Java EE, Oracle made the decision to allow the Community to finalize the specification. It quickly became known as the "Community JSR" and the slogan "@Controller to the Community" grew out of it.

All the Java EE 8 specifications were transferred to Eclipse Foundation and Jakarta EE, MVC was once again left behind. We managed to release MVC 1.0 through the JCP and has since moved over to Jakarta EE as well and released Jakarta MVC 1.1 through the Jakarta EE Specification Process. And we don't stop there, these days, Jakarta MVC 2.0 is on its way out. Maybe it is time for a new slogan? "The Specification that Never Dies!"?

In this talk, I will take you through this journey and show all aspects of Jakarta MVC 2.0 in code. You don't want to miss this!
