Gus Heck commented on SOLR-17503:
---------------------------------

Just for clarification in case the details of my prior comment are unclear or 
have faded from memory:
 * We do not need to remove javax package references where that javax is still 
part of java SE (and thus still maintained and distributed by oracle)
 * We do need to remove javax packages that were part of J2EE (the stuff that 
moved to the Eclipse foundation)

So "javax" stuff is a slightly too broad of a phrase...  all we need is to 
remove the "J2EE javax" stuff 

> Umbrella: Move to Jakarta J2EE packages

> In a recent migration from 8x to 9x I encountered a lot of issues where a 
> client with a repository containing custom solr components and fixes was 
> *still* unable to migrate to latest versions of critical packages like 
> dropwizard and hibernate validator because those packages rely on jakarta 
> packages, and even if it might be possible to re-arrange the decade plus old 
> repository and builds to avoid conflict the work to do so is prohibitive.
> Solr needs to not be the stick in the mud holding folks back. This ticket is 
> to collect/track tickets relating our dependency on the legacy javax classes.
