> .... Main difference is I priviledge users whereas you priviledge your personal goal. I actually do not have any *personal* goal for CXF. Certainly the CXF team decides the way to go. This PR is just a proposal, which you may gracefully drop if it is not what the CXF team wants. > Once again we see that jakarta adoption is not for today - as java 8 stayed for years before some app use java 11 and libs are still stucked to java 8. Off-topic, but as you mentioned it: IMHO the main reason for not adopting Java 9+ is that most open source projects did not adopt either Java 9 nor multi-release JARs, so the community simply waits for *that* still, not vice versa. Users will adopt Java 9+ asap once all their dependencies adopt it. It is the Jakarta EE WG's intention to remove this deadlock situation by enforcing Java 11 in EE 9.1. We will see how reluctant people are once their application servers officially support Java 11 due to that synthetic pressure. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
