The goal of this release is to continue adding features and evolving the API.
More specifically:
- Basic API (handler) for Multiple authentication mechanisms
- Qualifiers for build-in authentication mechanisms
- In-memory identity store
Removals, deprecations or backwards incompatible changes
- Remove references to the SecurityManager (as listed here: https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Ajakartaee%2Fsecurity%20SecurityManager&type=code)
- Build-in authentication mechanisms now have a qualifier by default, whereas before they were unqualified
(Note, Jakarta Security does not use the SecurityManager explicitly, but it shows up as a somewhat internal detail in the API code)
