<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Jakarta EE 9 removes a very small number of specifications, and doesn&#8217;t introduce functional changes to the specifications. It does, however, introduce a package
rename, which will have a very wide impact. Not only do the specification jars and implementations in the server need to change their namespaces, user applications
will need to change any references as well.</p>
</div>

<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_goals">Goals</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>Try and maintain a single codebase for javax and jakarta. It&#8217;s tempting to fork master and embark on a massive renaming exercise. That&#8217;s complex as we&#8217;d need to do that for various dependencies as well, who may also have other branches and timelines. Having two code-bases also means that any changes need to be applied twice, and with renamed packages, its unlikely the git merging or cherry-picking will work.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Be backwards compatible - One goal I had in my mined, is that if you have an application that uses javax, you&#8217;d probably like to be able to run it on a new Jakarta EE server. There are some options here - I quite like the idea of running the Transformer as a javaagent, so any applications deployed using the old namespaces are converted on the fly at the bytecode level.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Tooling - I wonder what tooling we could potentially provide? One thought I had was a Maven plugin that can transform a war/ear file for you as part of a build.</p>
