Hi,

May I suggest another option :

• Use the jetty version provided by the distribution ;

If the jetty version provided by the distribution has all the needed feature, why provide and maintain another?

Best Regards,

I agree this should be the case for distributions where a "recent enough" version is available. However, we still need to maintain a copy of Jetty for distros that don't package it at all (ie, SLES 11...)

The upgrade to 7.6.14 seems to be a no brainer (I didn't see anything leading to problem).

The change to 9.x seems to be ok but is is clearly more profound, and they evolved parts that may impact us (at least classpath management and configuration files). So I can't assess the consequence from changelogs.

It seems to be mostly safe, but validation need to be done:

- for the way we load plugins,
- for all the configuration parameters we are using

So I would upgrade to 2.7.14 as a quick win, and have an other task to upgrade to 2.9.
