Modernization of the JMS API in Java EE 7

Question

A recent Aquarium Blog post mentions a modernization of the JMS API to be included in Java EE 7. Are there any information resources on the Internet on this topic?

Answer 1

Here is a list of JSRs (Look at JSR 316). When more details become available they will create a JSR for Java EE 7 and until then everything is speculation.

Reading the article you posted there is a telling quote:

Of course, all it's still early days and a lot can change once the expert groups form and get to work.

Basically EE 7 is in the very early days and the standardization process hasn't even really started.

Answer 2

There were a few words being said about this on Devoxx '10:

JMS is an old specification, which need to evelove for addressing new communication layers:

• resolving specification ambiguities
• standardized vendor extension
• integration with other specifications
• integration with the web tier
• (websocket, JSON, NIO2)

It's not much yet, hopefully more will be revealed soon. There was btw also a JMS BOF at Devoxx. Perhaps someone took notes of that?
