Re: [jakarta.ee-community] Webinar: Creating CI/CD pipelines for EE4J projects
Mike/all,

Could you please clarify, if that means, the Maven coordinates of an existing spec like Servlet, JMS, etc. will remain "javax.something:javax-something-api" even in new versions beyond Jakarta EE 8?

Even if inside those there will likely be multiple packages:
- javax.something for "Legacy" Java EE 8 definitions, potentially with a few modifications to existing classes)
- jakarta.something for entirely new elements like a new class, interface, annotation, etc. in those existing specs.

Is that the case, or will the Maven groupId and artifactId switch over to "jakarta" from a certain version after 8 on?
There certainly shouldn't be two or more artifacts, leaving any OSGi or "Jigsaw" modularization aside here.

Thanks,
Werner

I know we discussed and approved this usage of "jakarta" over "javax", but what was the expected timing of this change?  Immediately?  Or, wait until after Eclipse Glassfish is Java EE 8 compliant, which would then signal the formal start of Jakarta EE releases.  Specific case...  The recent JAX-RS 2.1.1 update.  If that would have been released this week, should it have used "jakarta" in it's group and artifact ids?  Or, should we wait until after we declare that Java EE has successfully transitioned to Eclipse?

As far as I know 'jakarta' will be used for new specs, while existing specs will continue to use the 'javax' namespace.

 
Mike,  That is what we have been operating under, that things like the servlet-api will remain under the old javax namespace.  If that changes at any point we need to be a whole lot more public about socializing that change around, I almost had a heart attack midway through this thread on setting up a build CI meeting. :)
