Could someone explain it to me? IMHO, *if* consumers of our stack want to support both javax and jakarta packages, the work will need to be done there i.e. in WildFly or Quarkus. There's a good chance the solutions will be different given the totally different infrastructure of both. And supporting that for Hibernate ORM only makes sense if the whole stack supports that e.g. CDI, HV, Jakarta EL... and AFAICS most of the projects will only support either javax or jakarta, not both. So if we want to support both, we will need the extra layer I was talking about at a global level, not in Hibernate ORM. I wouldn't open the door at supporting both in ORM and let the consuming projects decide of the strategy they want to follow and how they want to solve the issue globally. -- Guillaume
