There is community work underway 
<https://github.com/gwtproject/gwt/pull/9845> to update GWT-RPC itself to 
use jakarta.servlet packages, and the same idea could be applied to 
gwtplatform. Unfortunately, the gwtplatform.com domain is still owned, so 
any fork could not take over the groupid, but would need to pick a new one, 
which might cause some irritation when upgrading. I do see that the domain 
is scheduled to expire next year, but that probably isn't long enough to 
wait. It might be possible to contact the former owners to get permission 
for this work to be published as well. If you take that route, I'd be 
interested in being involved.

I've used the eclipse transformer before, and personally found it to be 
more trouble that it is worth.
