Tristan Stevens commented on FLUME-2698:
----------------------------------------
I've updated the diff on the review board. Be grateful for some input on this
one.
As well as increasing the version number, we also increase the configurability
and tunability of Jetty quite significantly in this release.
> Upgrade Jetty Version

> Key: FLUME-2698

> <artifactId>jetty-util</artifactId>
> <version>6.1.26</version>
> </dependency>
> {code}
> Which was EOL (End of Life) back in 2010 and is no longer fit for production
> use (without heavy customizations and modifications like Google does for GAE,
> just to keep it safe and vulnerability free)
> Jetty was moved to Eclipse.org back during the Jetty 7 days.
> http://eclipse.org/jetty/
> Note that [Jetty 7 and Jetty 8 are now also
> EOL|https://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/jetty-announce/msg00069.html] (as
> of 2014)
> Jetty 9 is the only stable and supported version of Jetty now.
