The name of the Java platform for the enterprise has been simplified. Formerly, the platform was known
as Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE), and specific versions had "dot numbers" such
as J2EE 1.4. To strengthen the association with the Java platform, the short name is now Java EE, and to simplify the version number, the leading "1." is dropped. So the latest version of the Java platform for the enterprise is Java Platform, Enterprise Edition 6 (Java EE 6).
