Hi, I'm in the process of upgrading my application to Spring 6, Spring Boot 3 and Hibernate 6. That means moving to the Jakarta APIs. Shiro is my only dependency that doesn't have a (pre)release based on Jakarta yet.
While most containers will be able to support legacy javax APIs at runtime or via transformer tools, this is far from optimal. Tomcat, for instance, requires apps with legacy APIs to be deployed to a special context or transformed via a a custom tool (https://tomcat.apache.org/migration-10.html). My question is: Are there plans to release a Jakarta based version of Shiro in the foreseeable future? Spring 6, for instance, is planned for release some time in September. Can we expect a Jakarta Shiro release by then?
