1. If we are going to release a version of Tomcat for Jakarta EE 9, I need a proper version number to name it, and "10.0.0" is not such a number. As such, I am strongly -1 to option A. 2. Option C looks like a waste. It may occur naturally if it takes too long to stabilize Tomcat and Jakarta EE 10 comes sooner. I am -0 to Option C. 3. I like both "B" and "D". I think that we can go with "D", but be prepared to switch to "B" in case if Jakarta EE 10 occurs to be much different from Jakarta EE 9. The deciding point for me will be whether Jakarta EE 10 allows running with Java 8. If it does not, I would prefer option "B" rather than "D". Re: Mark's > I don't like option B because the off-by-one issue between Jakarta EE > and Tomcat. For me aligning Tomcat version and Jakarta EE is not a practical goal. It did not happen before. It may occur naturally, but I do not like to aim for it. Offtopic: I had a similar discussion in another project several years ago, and the outcome was that there is no need for an alignment (The discussion was about aligning TortoiseSVN with Apache Subversion).

I think that nowadays it is OK to have a major branch that is not a LTS one. It has not happen in Tomcat yet, but It happens in many other projects.
