The starting point should be JSR 370 (JAX-RS 2.1) but not JSR 339 (JAX-RS 2.0), otherwise we would end up with a lot of confusion in the community as JAX-RS 2.1 is publicly available since months.

I've been working on an implementation of the Jax Rs 2.1 specifications that I would like to publish as an open source project. Any idea when the TCK will be open sourced?
