Not being the typical Camel user, I see that as a compliment :)

For the blog it may be also good to highlight not just how to upgrade
(migration path), but also why to upgrade.

There are technical reason like being up to date with Jakarta
EE/Spring/Quarkus, but I think most users are even more interested in the
functional improvements of the framework.

Some technical and functional improvements were highlighted here:

https://camel.apache.org/blog/2023/08/camel4-whatsnew/

But some improvements are already refined in the coming 4.1 release, think
of

- Better support for Yaml DSL
- Better support for XML DSL (xml-io improvements)
- Better Kafka support (camel-kafka)
- Jbang improvements
- Better OpenTelemetry support
- Improvements in dumping of routes

Most Camel developers (at least here on the mailing list) are probably
eager to migrate, but we also need to sell it to our colleagues or
customers. The whole Jakarta thing says nothing to them, but better
observability and better performance (like
https://camel.apache.org/blog/2023/05/camel-4-performance-improvements/) is
much better to communicate.
