I can only say, that I fully agree with Romain here.

For example, we are shading dbcp2 with jakarta.* relocations in TomEE 9 
(targeting EE9.1 / jakarta.*). I don't think, that it is a good thing to let 
the users fork/relocate or abandon dbcp2 in order to be able to use the 
jakarta.* namespace.

The EE ecosystem is moving and if we want to play a role in it, we need to 
adapt a bit. That said, it isn't a huge effort to migrate / create a version to 
support jakarta.* 

IMHO it is only a matter of available resources / time and people/volunteers 
who want to contribute / help to make it happen. If it requires to make a dbcp3 
due to commons rule set (binary compat) and relocation isn't an option, so be 
it. 

Nevertheless, I would appreciate some perspective, so we can deal with it on 
our side :-) (and as already said: I am happy to help / contribute, if needed)

Gruß
Richard
