Currently there is no time line for Apache ActiveMQ Artemis to turn into 6.x afaik. Nor still any confirmation it will be renamed to that. It may just live in as it has been for the last few years.
Apache ActiveMQ Artemis, It is used in production environments already (we are adopting it in my org), and also is already on its second major version as such is mature as anything else. Re client support, it has OpenWire (activemq5.x protocol) support so you should be able to switch over relatively easily, without changing your client code, if you're using standard JMS. Artemis also supports AMQP, MQTT and many more standard wire protocols. Re the Kafka vs JMS (ActiveMQ or any other) broker tbh, it's like nosql vs sql both have their place and should be used complementary to each other not as replacement. In my org we run them side by side complimenting each other and bridging message flows between the two so we can benefit from both worlds and all the features we need for different scenarios.
