> I don't know the history, so the question might be invalid: should the jakartaee.platform module contain a revision number? I would expect Jakarta 9 to change and they might (or even have?) decide to change packages, so will this impact us? > You are right about this, JakartaEE 9 change the packages names from javax to jakarta: - [Jakarta EE 9 API Docs](https://jakarta.ee/specifications/platform/9/apidocs/) - [Jakarta EE 8 API Docs](https://jakarta.ee/specifications/platform/8/apidocs/) This is the [Backwards Compatibility](https://eclipse-ee4j.github.io/jakartaee-platform/jakartaee9/JakartaEE9ReleasePlan) statement for Jakarta EE 9 > > Backwards Compatibility > > Jakarta EE 9 WILL NOT impose any backward compatibility requirements for compatible implementations to support the Jakarta EE 8 release. This is aligned with our goal of enabling new implementations to enter the ecosystem. However, we strongly believe that many products and tools will provide backwards compatibility and migration solutions for enabling older applications to run on Jakarta EE 9. So I think the new module 'jakartaee.platform' should be renamed to 'jakartaee8.platform' and remove the revision number? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
