Re: [glassfish-dev] GlassFish updates for the javax -> jakarta transitio

[Bill Shannon <bill.shannon@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, we need to do most of the work in dependency order.  The Jakarta EE 9
release plan [1] has a set of "waves" that show the ordering.  The ORB isn't
included and that's probably a mistake.  We would need your help to understand
where it fits in in the dependency ordering.

Will any of the javax.rmi APIs need to be changed to jakarta.rmi?
I assume all of the RMI/IIOP APIs are actually removed from Java SE and so
would need to be changed to jakarta.* APIs to be included in Jakarta EE 9.
