Hi All Just to introduce myself a little, I am one of the contributors to Apache TomEE, and we have been embedding ActiveMQ 5 for some time, and have found it a really nice solution, in particular enabling users to work with JMS with almost no setup.
We do have a desire to slim down our dependencies, and I would like to propose that ActiveMQ potentially use JSON-B as opposed to being tightly coupled to one specific JSON parsing library. This has previously been discussed on https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/AMQ/issues/AMQ-7072, and it sounded like the community was open to using JSON-B, but would strongly want to stick with Jackson as the default serializer. I'd like to have a go at working on this. If I was able to make the change to use JSON-B, (and I appreciate that may need work here (which I'm also ok to contribute to): https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-future-ideas/issues/19. If I could do this, and keep Jackson as the default serializer, would this be a contribution that the community could consider? Many thanks Jon
