Is the maintenance plan updated for jakarta servlet-4.0.x? #498

jakarta servlet is a good product, many of our products rely on it, but our company uses JDK8 and tomcat9 for development, while the latest jakarta servlet-6.0.0 requires JDK11. We'd like to know if there's a maintenance upgrade plan for jakarta servlet4.0.x

Triste-001 commented 1 year ago

Because jakarta servlet 4.0.4 has been released two years ago, third-party parts that have not been updated for more than two years are at risk of decay and replacement, we very much hope that jakarta servlet-4.0.x series has an upgrade plan

There will not be an upgrade to the 4.x spec.

This is an API so 'decay' is not really an issue. If you want an updated version you need to move to updated Servlet containers and JDK.
