As per 
https://jakarta.ee/specifications/platform/9/platform-spec-9-SNAPSHOT.html#a3447 
Jakarta EE 9 implementations should only be required to support Jakarta 
EE 8+ schemas, so we cannot really run these compatibility tests as they 
were originally written (with older J2EE schemas).

Does the EJB SPEC team want to consider updating these compat tests now 
or state now that you might want to in the future?

If they are removed and you decide to re-purpose them in the future that 
is still possible as the test source is preserved in the git repository.

Further thoughts?

Thanks,
Scott
