Hi,
 First a big thanks to everyone who helped to get Jakarta Rest 4.0 out for EE11!! 
 
 Yes, indeed! 
 
Now that most everything is done it is time to move on.   Here is a tentative plan for our branches.  Do others agree or have other suggestions? 
 Current Branches: 
main (currently used for 4.0 release, with no updates since)4.0.0 (This branch was apparently automatically created by eclipse when the release went to ballot?  I assume it is to be used as a service branch for 4.0? ) 
 
 Yes. 
release-4.0 (Was the original branch used when the plan was to remove @Context injection and is now obsolete)4.0.0-M1 (an attempt made by me back in December  and never delivered or made official)4.0.0-M2 (another attempt by me and never delivered or made official)release-5.0 (working branch containing the start of work to deprecate @Context and other items for Jakarta Rest 5.0) 
 Option for moving forward: 
main (to be used for forward development)4.0.0 (This is presumably the service release branch)4.0.0-M1 (remove)4.0.0-M2 (remove)release-4.0 (Rename to “release-4.0-relic”:  Likely none of the content in this branch is useful at this point, but probably good to retain for a while in case)release-5.0 (move relevant changes to main branch and remove, avoiding dual maintenance with main) 
 
 I agree. We should do this ASAP and redirect any relevant PRs in flight to the new branches, if necessary.
