I suggest changing:
"Ballots to approve UJSRs for additional Platform Edition Specifications"
to:
"Ballots to approve UJSRs that define the initial version of a new Platform Edition"
Comment created by shannon:
I think that's pretty good. Let's see if everyone else agrees that that's clear.
Comment created by eduardo:
I've implemented the last suggested change.
Issue was closed with resolution "Fixed"
Jira issue originally created by user pcurran:
Lines 690-693 define when a 2/3 majority is required to approve a JSR. The intent is that 2/3 is required for JSRS:
a) that define new Platforms (that is, the first JSR to specify a previously non-existent Platform), or b) modify the Java language
The existing language is somewhat ambiguous in case a) and could be interpreted as refering to UJSRs that update existing Platforms.
The language should be clarified. Suggestions to follow.
