Hey Folks,
I would like to resume the discussion regarding 4.1.x (Jakarta EE 10): the
Jakarta EE 9.x was a transitional release, most (if not all) already jumped off.
From the CXF side, quite a lot of work has been done already on 4.1.x (Jakarta
EE 10),
streamlining it would definitely help. So far only @Francesco responded (thanks
a lot)
but would be great to hear from others. Thanks!
Best Regards,
Andriy Redko
