[jira] [Commented] (VELTOOLS-202) VelocityViewServlet extending from jakarta.servlet instead of javax.servlet

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELTOOLS-202?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17867089#comment-17867089 ] 

Michael Osipov commented on VELTOOLS-202:
-----------------------------------------

I do not like to put any artificial limitations unless there is a technical need for it. Here, it don't see any for the base code, jakarta is just fine in a separate module with its own requirements. I also don't expect the javax namespace to disappear anytime soon for a lot of people.

> To whom may concern, 
> Currently VelocityViewServlet extends from javax rather than jakarta.
> Due the cutover from Java to Jakarta, *is there any plan to make Apache Velocity compatible with Servlet 5.0?*
> Not sure if there are any plans to make the transition to Jakarta namespace and if there is any ETA for it.
