Robert Schaft commented on TOMEE-2876:
--------------------------------------

> JAX-RS is the API, CXF is the implementation. Theoretically, we could change 
>to something different, but TomEE consciously chooses to use Apache 
>implementations where possible. Creating a new implementation of JAX-RS from 
>scratch is likely a very substantial task.

So if CXF is just the implementation, why can't you update to a higher minor 
CXF version that has the issues fixed?
