Dear (former) Experts,
Just in case you are not subscribed to dev or users mailing lists, one week
ago the FAB passed:
https://jcp.org/en/jsr/results?id=5877 (just 3 missed it because of Labor
Day, all of whom also did not vote on JSR 364 MR, 2 others were not allowed
to vote at this point)
It's fairly strange, that PMO takes such a long time between FAB passing
and an official Final Release page, but I assume we have to assume it's
because of JavaOne or the JCP EC self-nomination, some who tried said they
had technical problems with, or Hackergarten and other JCP related
activities.
If the page can't be updated before the F2F Leo and I are there and we'll
raise it or simply ask Heather when to expect it. One week from now we have
the BOF and it would be great, to see the Final Release page then although
what's binding is the result and that was positive;-)
Probably mention it before I leave to SF in the UoM news section.
There are some small improvements, mainly in extension modules like UoM
Systems, SI, etc.
Primarily to improve the way new units are registered in a system with a
proper label for toString(). New units often see the operation result like
"m*12345" or similar. That is mathematically correct but ugly if people
expect to see "in" or "ft" instead.
I explored a few details on that in the "trunk" of the RI, but I think most
of those can be fixed directly in those modules on top of the 1.0 versions.
Thanks again for your support making the Final release possible. The EG
officially does not exist after Final, but as soon as java.net shutdown
comes closer, we may either turn this into another list or just continue
using "units-dev" like several other JSRs (e.g. CDI) do regardless of a
particular number or version.
Regards,
Werner
