---------------------------------------------
Hi Michael,
All new Java application servers like Tomcat 10, Glassfish, Open Liberty, IBM
Websphere have migrated from javax to jakarta namespaces and there is no trace
of javax anymore.
Currently Migrating from Tomcat 9 to Tomcat 10 and getting the below exception.
SEVERE: Exception Processing ErrorPage[errorCode=0,
location=/velocity/error/notFound.vm] *jakarta.servlet.ServletException: Error
instantiating servlet class
[org.apache.velocity.tools.view.VelocityViewServlet* because extends from
*javax*.
I believe that anybody who wants to run Velocity into Jakarta servers won't be
able because of this dependency.
I am doing more research on this at the moment and checking how to handle 2
different versions of *HttpServlet* in the server or if there is any workaround.
Thanks for your quick response.

> To whom may concern,
> Currently VelocityViewServlet extends from javax rather than jakarta.
> Due the cutover from Java to Jakarta, *is there any plan to make Apache

> Not sure if there are any plans to make the transition to Jakarta namespace
