Wolfgang: yours and mine PRs are merged, and when WFLY 17 Final is out I will also deploy the archetype, thanks a lot for your contribution! Yet now I have to ask, do you plan to submit similar for the other old javaee archetype? :-)
Brian: yep it was just the JDK, I will deploy these too (no planned updates in such code tho)

>> If you think it’s not a small effort task then certainly agree that’s not a blocker, I look at the archetypes same way as the quickstarts, an aggregation project, so we may take outdated/faulty ones out of build and release the working+actual ones. We may give it a thought later if it makes sense effort wise to update or drop the subsystem ones, no worries.
