There was some interest to revive the component. So this is a starting point, thanks. I would suggest:

  • Drop 7 and 8 support since they are EOL.
  • Test with a more recent Tomcat 9 (34 is from 5 years ago or something).
  • See if this really needs a set of classes per major version. Overall the differences should be minimal and this would avoid having something for 10.1 and 11. I would say a new set of classes should be added only if there is some breaking change.

@rmaucher what about incorporate those changes, tag then for use only up to jdk11 and Java EE 8, release as is? So, after this, I will try to create a PR taking into account your third advise and change the repo to jdk11/17 and Jakarta 10? ping @poolborges, @karlvr and @struberg.

I could be talked into hitting the merge button. However, there is no way I'll +1 this for a release, it needs a "full" rewrite.
