Re: [ee4j-pmc] Just changing javax to jakarta in package names
|
+1 to this - perhaps package names can be changed for Jakarta EE 9/10
Just chiming in, I hope that is Ok.
The spec names should change but not the package other than replacing javax with jakarta. We already have a lot of work to do with the transition without adding more overhead and honestly, I see no benefit in changing the package names at all. People are used to them, regardless of how strange they might be, and changing them just adds to the confusion. I hope we don't do this on top of everything else. Seems like a waste of resources and a great way to create more issues.
Hi,
On a separate
discussion thread, Bill Shannon and I were discussing the proposed package
renaming...

This is indeed a completely separate issue, but the direction from the
PMC
so far has been to use package names that are more aligned with the new
spec
names.
I don't remember
that we, as the PMC, were recommending to modify the package names to be
more aligned with the new spec names. And, personally, I wouldn't
recommend it. The more we change, the more angst it produces for
our customers. Just change javax to jakarta and be done with it.
(IMHO)
