Re: [rest-dev] [External] : @Context removal vs. deprecation
I agree Santiago and can do that rename, assuming there are no objections.   We would then be in a dual maintenance situation with the “main” and “release-4.1” branches.   That is probably unavoidable.   

Also, the current “release-4.0” branch will need to be renamed or potentially removed.

Jim,

 Let’s rename release-3.2 to release-4.1 (to avoid any confusion with the new 4.0) and continue work there. If at a later time we decide 4.1 should be 5.0, we can rename it again.

Hi,
The proposed Jakarta RESTful Web Services 4.0 content (https://deploy-preview-705--jakartaee-specifications.netlify.app/specifications/restful-ws/4.0/) is currently under a “progress review” but is expected to pass within a week.

Assuming there are no problems, we can consider the 4.0 content to be set.   And, at least for now, that work will continue in the “main” branch.

That brings us to the discussion of what will be next.   Do we push for a version 5.0 that removes @Context injection entirely or a 4.1 version that deprecates @Context injection and provides an alternative implementation?    Both of these options carry many/most of the same concerns and some good progress has been made in the “release-3.2” branch toward deprecation..  

So the question is, should this deprecation work continue in a “release-4.1” working branch  or be abandon in favor of a “release-5.0” that removes @Context injection.

Personally I prefer deprecation in a 4.1 release prior to removal in a 5.0 release, unless a blocking issue is discovered.  What is your opinion?

Thanks
