That's not my understanding. I get that Forge is focused on Java projects,
in particular Maven projects, but I don't think it is--or should
be--sharply focused on Java EE. Contributors from Red Hat may be focused on
that aspect, so if that was the context then I agree. But there are many
community members interested in seeing Forge used outside that scope. We
don't want the perception of Forge to get pinned to Java EE, IMO.
