Redo images to make them editable (ie. svg)

[kwsutter]

While updating the Platform spec for Milestone 1 of Jakarta EE 9, we determined that many of the images used in the spec need to be edited. Unfortunately, the current png format is not suitable for easy editing. We started to experiment using the two diagrams in the Deployment chapter. We used inkscape to recreate the images in svg format. Although it took a little bit of work to recreate them, they are now quite easy to update going forward.

We need to do this with the rest of the images in the Platform spec. This was documented as a comment in this Specifications PR: jakartaee/specifications#180 (comment)

Specific images that need to be recreated... Can do the others to be complete, but these definitely need updating for Jakarta EE 9... Let's first recreate them as they currently exist, and then use a separate PR for updating them.

I will try make this, but only at Saturday I can do it in my free time. May you wait until there?

Absolutely we can wait. These are not for the Milestone, so we have some time before they are "due". Looking forward to what you can re-create. Thanks.

@kwsutter which folder should I put the images? I make the bigger one and take a lot of time, I will work on the second still today. Maybe today I'll send the two images.
UPDATE: the images are ready, tomorrow I will send, now I'm going to sleep.

The commit with images are ready.

I just approved and merged PR #217. Thanks, @cpusam, for redo-ing these images. They look great.

I have been following this ticket because it brings Contributions to the project without signing any agreements.
It is formidably fun to see Jakartee Samuel @cpusam contribute without red-tape and use write up authorization to submit designs.

Love it, you Samuel are worthy of emulation as so are you facilitator Kevin :)

Oh, thanks! I like of opensource and this is the first time that I used inkscape to contribute with some project :)

[aeiras]

wow, that is amazing Samuel!

Thanks for sharing that.
Without pressure, please check out the doodle poll open for the Friends of Jakarta zoom call using this thread and if able, participate and join that call. I believe that Jakarta EE benefit from Contributors like you! :) stay safe and hope to continue to learn more about what you care to contribute to and the clever forms you own such contributions. Cheers

@aeiras I will read that at Saturday, because I'm working now, but, I pretend to redo some others images to svg.
It's a little weird for me contributing with graphics being a programmer hahaha

Awesome work Samuel! Perhaps you would also take a look at the Jakarta EE tutorial images? There are some old graphics there also but we never found someone that could take care of them. El jue., 25 jun. 2020 20:53, Samuel Leonardo <[email protected]> escribió:

@ggam sorry for delay to answer. Could you say me where that images are located? At saturday, I will evaluate and estimate the time to do it.

[ggam]

But you only took 3 hours to respond haha!! Images are located at https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/jakartaee-tutorial/tree/master/src/main/jbake/assets/img There are quite a bunch of images (~65) but there's no hurry for getting it completed. Even if you submit a draft PR with only a few of them, it would be a great start. I made most of the work to refresh the Tutorial look and feel (see eclipse-ee4j/jakartaee-tutorial#191) but we need to convert all the images before officially promoting it.

This Issue is closed. Maybe it would be better to continue the Tutorial image request in the Tutorial repo? Thanks! @ggam @cpusam
