JSR

A JSR is a Java Specification Request. The Java language and its APIs are subject to change by means of a semi-open process, called the Java Community Process. Whenever a change is to be implemented to the Java standard, it is described in a JSR and subject to a community process with votes. Things like the new Java Memory Model (JSR-133) and support for dynamic languages (JSR-292) are examples of well-known JSRs.
