Hi Robert,

while you are overhauling everything :) one more question - or rather something 
to think about...

Is there any chance of getting rid of this dependency in the Axis2 code?

{{ca.juliusdavies:not-yet-commons-ssl:0.3.9}}

It is over 14 years old and brings a CVE warning:
|Certificates.java in Not Yet Commons SSL before 0.3.15 does not properly 
verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common 
Name (CN) field of the X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle 
attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate.|

The site from juliusdavies is also no longer online - so no chance of a 
surprise fix :D

Cheers, Jeff

> Axis2 Future Roadmap in keeping up with new Java Versions

>                 Key: AXIS2-6051
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-6051
>             Project: Axis2
>          Issue Type: Wish
>    Affects Versions: 1.8.0
>            Reporter: Jeff Thomas
>            Assignee: Robert Lazarski
>            Priority: Major
>             Fix For: 1.8.3
>
>
> Related to AXIS2-6035.
> Hi Robert/Andreas/Axis2 Support,
> just a general question about the realistic future of Axis2 (and by extension 
> Axiom/Rampart) in keeping up with the quickly changing Java releases.
> We are getting a lot of push from our customers (and our own internal wish to 
> use modern java features) to move to java 17+ ... we are hitting more and 
> more walls with things like:
>  * java modules
>  * javax -> jakarta migration // this is a big one!
>  ** jakarta.activation
>  ** jakarta.validation
>  ** jakarta.jms
>  ** jakarta.mail
>  ** jakarta.jws
>  ** jakarta.jaxb
>  ** ...
>  * Tomcat 10 + 
>  * and related stuff like
>  ** ActiveMQ Artemis (jakarta.jms)
>  ** removal of SecurityManager in JDK 19+ 
>  ** etc.
> The sort of general feeling is that unfortunately we are getting pulled 
> towards a state of complete incompatibility between Axis2 and current 
> supported JVMs / other Frameworks.
> Maybe you can give a bit of feedback about the roadmap for Axis2 and 
> addressing the growing gap in dependencies?  (and would welcome any info 
> about Axiom/Rampart along the same lines).  Good or bad news doesn't 
> matter...would appreciate having some concrete statement to address our own 
> internal planning about the way forward. :)
> Appreciate any info you can provide.
