Michael Seele commented on LOG4J2-2978:
---------------------------------------

Is there any action going on right here? We are working on our first migration to tomcat 10 and log4j 2 is now unusable for us.

If i can help in any way, please let me know.

> Jakarta EE 9 is out already along with stable versions of the two most popular containers - Tomcat 10 and Jetty 11 (running on Servlet 5.0). `log4j-web` internally still uses `javax` (e.g. [here|https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/blob/rel/2.14.0/log4j-web/src/main/java/org/apache/logging/log4j/web/Log4jServletContainerInitializer.java#L21]) so it is incompatible with an application that runs on these two containers. It would be nice to release a new version that is compatible with them. Unfortunately a single version cannot be made compatible with both the "old" `javax` and the "new" `jakarta` namespaces so perhaps a new major one should be released.
