Currently, most Jakarta EE specifications follow a consistent and concise URL pattern under:
https://jakarta.ee/specifications/{spec-name}/
For example:
However, Jakarta Validation diverges from this convention and is currently published under:
https://jakarta.ee/specifications/bean-validation/
This URL is inconsistent with:
- The short, domain-oriented naming used by other specifications
- The commonly used specification name (“Jakarta Validation”)
- Developer expectations when navigating the Jakarta EE specifications
Proposal
Rename (or alias) the Jakarta Validation specification URL to follow the same standard as the others, for example:
https://jakarta.ee/specifications/validation/
