JCS is only one dependency out of about 150 for this project - the jakarta show must go on, somehow. I'm actually about 90% done, to the point I am trying to start the server with no exceptions. Jakarta has had the Apache projects that I am the release manager for in full panic mode for the last three years. I made a mistake in just assuming every Apache project dealt with it by now, and am in a bind. Tomorrow, I need to decide to "fix" my local git checkout of JCS, or do something else - which would frankly break my heart since JCS replaced a far inferior solution about 15 years ago and just works great. Some feedback on what is the holdup or challenges on migrating JCS to jakarta, is what I am hoping for. I see lots of recent commits, so it is an active project.
