    Description

      ActiveMQ Artemis depends on some Apache Geronimo Specs artifacts [1] and Javax artifacts [2] for the Java EE APIs. Most of them could be migrated to their respective Jakarta EE artifacts, given that Jakarta EE 8 provides backwards compatibility within the javax* namespace.
      The license of Jakarta EE artifacts is Eclipse Public License 2.0 [3] so they may be included in binary form within an Apache product, see ASF 3RD PARTY LICENSE POLICY [4].
      Following the discussion on the dev list[5], I would migrate to Jakarta EE 8 artifacts having the artemis-pom pointing to the EE 8 versions, and override those in modules needing the EE 9 versions instead.
