JCP Members should use this form to submit a new Java Specification Request. The JSR is posted to the JCP website when the JSR Review begins. Executive Committee members submitting new JSRs should have their EC representatives send a message to spec-submit@jcp.org in parallel, confirming that the EC Member company is aware of and approves the submission. Note that the JSR Approval Ballot always starts on a Tuesday, so the JSR Review may be extended slightly beyond the 2 or 4 weeks you specify in order to end the day before the ballot begins.
