Hello,

I'd like to ask if there's any good reason why Apache Jersey 1.x is being used in BLC instead of (currently stable) 2.14? Are there any plans to use the new version in the future?

Thank you.

We're actually going to take Jersey/JAXRS out altogether and move to just using Spring MVC for REST services. The reason we were not using Jersey 2 is because the Spring support there is dubious at best. Since we were on the fence about continuing to recommend JAXRS anyway, we did not want to invest the time into making sure it all worked since it isn't straightforward.
