My first idea was we move master to 3.x and insert a new 2.0.x release which maintains compatibility with 1.x other than the Jakarta changes but considering other requirements on us that would lead us to: -</div><div><br></div><div> * Elytron 1.x - Jakarta EE 8</div><div> * Elytron 2.x - Jakarta EE 9</div><div> * Elytron 3.x - Jakarta EE 8</div><div> * Elytron 4.x - Jakarta EE 9</div><div><br></div><div>So instead to simplify our versioning I was going to consider we pull the spec related modules out into their own projects: -</div><div><br></div><div> wildfly-elytron-ee and wildfly-elytron-mp</div><div><br></div><div>This would mean our Elytron release streams would become: -</div><div><br></div><div><div> * Elytron 1.x - Jakarta EE 8</div><div> * Elytron 2.x - No Jakarta modules, compatible with 1.x.</div><div> * Elytron 3.x - No Jakarta modules, some breaking changes.</div><div><br></div><div>The new modules would then align with Elytron 2.x and handle the move to Jakarta EE 9 within their own version ranges.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Darran Lofthouse.</div><div><br></div><div></div></div><div><br></div></div>
