Why org.eclipse.jetty.server.Server instead of org.mortbay.jetty.Server?

[Glen Mazza <gl...@gmail.com>]

Team, our org.apache.cxf.transport.http_jetty.JettyHTTPServerEngine uses
Eclipse's wrapper of the Jetty server (org.eclipse.jetty.server.Server)
instead of the actual object (org.mortbay.jetty.Server). Out of curiosity,
is there a reason for that--is the Eclipse wrappered version more useful or
more up-to-date or?

Thanks,
Glen

This is on trunk.  2.2.x still uses org.mortbay.

The basic reason is that 6.x will be the last org.mortbay versions.    jetty 
is now officially an Eclipse project and versions 7 and greater will be 
org.eclipse, not org.mortbay.    The org.eclipse stuff doesn't wrapper the 
org.mortbay, it replaces it.    On trunk, we've updated to 7.x (and will 
probably go to 8.x once 8.0 is released).
