[wildfly-dev] Re: Finer grained tracking of progress on EE 10

Hi Scott, Sorry for the delay; I've been unexpectedly away for 2 weeks. Right now WF Preview in main is moving to using EE 10 APIs and impls. It's absolutely fine to make dependency updates in WFP to switch dependencies from EE 9.1. There'd probably need to be some discussion, as we're using a fork of Mojarra, but in general it's fine to move to EE 10 deps as they become available. Happy to chat here or in zulip about the mechanics of making dependency changes in WFP. Zulip is probably better. Before I left we were talking about moving standard WildFly in main off of javax.* namespace fairly soon so we could get rid of the large delta in main between std WF and WF Preview. That large delta worked ok for EE 9.1 dev but has become more of a hassle with EE 10 dev. We don't have all the needed jakarta.* components yet though, so this shift would mean we start doing transformation when building std WF as well. So this would not get rid of the transformation aspect. Chatting with Darran just now we were tentatively looking at making that switch in std WF next week. That's tentative though, as it hasn't been socialized at all beyond this post, plus I'm just catching up from being away and don't have an understanding of what's happened those two weeks and what needs to be done before we can make the switch.
