Manfred Huber commented on GERONIMO-6726:
-----------------------------------------
Is the discussion about that already dead? So is it quite fix that the
{{javax.*}} Namespace will not be allowed to use anymore?
> Create jakarta.* spec APIs

> Key: GERONIMO-6726
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-6726
> Project: Geronimo
> Issue Type: Task
> Security Level: public(Regular issues)
> Components: specs
> Reporter: Mark Struberg
> Priority: Major
>
> Oracle does not allow to evolve the former JavaEE specs under the javax.*
> package name as they claim to own the full 'Java' trademark.
> While this may or may not be true it might be wise to not pursue a legal
> battle.
> Thus we will move all the specs to use the jakarta.* package names.
