Hi all, I am currently working on the Jakarta migration … initially I thought of this as an experiment in order to find out what the implications would be. Turns out my gut-feeling was right that this would not be a simple change. Less for the complexity of the changes, but what they would bring to the rest of the build.
So, for now it seems as if the only Netty version compatible with the Jakarta namespace would be Netty 11 (Technically they claimed 10 would be compatible, but that’ just not true). Unfortunately, Netty 9 was the last version to work with Java 8 … so it seems as if going to the Jakarta namespace would stop us from building on Java 8. I know I knew why I would have preferred this migration for a bigger release, but I guess a 1.4.0 or 2.0.0 might be more appropriate for a change like this. Chris
