I agree with Bill's replies.
Here is what the EE4J FAQ says about the javax.* namespace:
Will EE4J use javax package names?
We recognize this is important to compatibility. We have not yet
formalized the plan, but we intend to enable use of existing
javax package names to provide compatibility. We also intend to
enable extension of existing javax namespaces (e.g.
javax.servlet.*) to provide continuity and enable evolution of
existing APIs. Our current expectation is that net new packages
will use a different namespace naming convention.

Will,
Thanks for the update.
Can you tell us what this means for
backward-compatibility and ease of adoption?

No, that's not what it means. Please see the EE4J FAQ.
Functional enhancements of these APIs should occur as part of the
EE4J project, using whatever process is defined there. Again, see
the EE4J FAQ.
