Hello David,

Just my point of view that I want to share with you.
Of course not everyone is using µServices architecture but there is some 
traction on that.

For example, we have migrated 2 of our solutions from monolith to µServices 
architecture and we are using for the moment TomEE 8.0.5.

So , for our organization, MP specifications are quite important. The 
consequence is that we are waiting for a close following of the specifications 
as they evolved. David, as you said, TomEE 8.0.5 is in between 2.1/2.2 MP 
specifications. But it's too old ! :-(
The version 4.0.1 has just been released, between 2.2 and 4.0.1, 5 MP 
specifications releases have been published.

I am afraid that if you don't put some priority on MP, most of the people, 
wanting to build a Java µService architecture, will use Quarkus or Helidon for 
such thing instead of using TomEE !    For example, following MP specifications 
as much as possible, is more important than having a full compliancy with 
Jakarta EE 8 or 9. Ask the question to the community and let's see the answers 
? 

Again I just want to share my feelings about the TomEE roadmap.

Best Regards.

Subject: Re: TomeEE 8.0.5 and microprofile JWT RBAC 1.1

Hello Francois,

TomEE 8 does support MicroProfile JWT 1.1.  As for the overall level of 
support, MicroProfile 2.1 would be the most accurate version to cite, though 
the answer is really it's a bit mixed.

Essentially MicroProfile 2.1 is the last MicroProfile version that included 
Fault Tolerance 1.x.  MicroProfile 2.2 switched to FaultTolerance 2.0 which is 
not supported.  Some of the specs are more current than the versions that were 
included in MicroProfile 2.1, so parts of our MicroProfile support is more 
current.

The technique of looking at the related API jar as you did is the right one to 
use.

Most people are working on Jakarta EE 8 compliance with a secondary focus on 
Jakarta EE 9 compliance as they are the same TCK just with different 
namespaces.  I suspect when that is done people will move onto getting 
MicroProfile compliance more current.

That isn't to say help getting MicroProfile support more current right now 
wouldn't be extremely welcome -- it definitely would -- however, no one has 
volunteered yet so it sits in the "someday" pile.

Hope that helps.
