• MicroProfile Metrics 3.0-RC1
• MicroProfile OpenAPI 2.0-RC2
• MicroProfile OpenTracing 2.0-RC1
• MicroProfile Rest Client 2.0-RC2

MicroProfile 4.0-M1 also utilizes the following specifications:

• Jakarta Contexts and Dependency Injection 2.0
• Jakarta Annotations 1.3
• Jakarta RESTful Web Services 2.1
• Jakarta JSON Binding 1.0
• Jakarta JSON Processing 1.1
