Yes, we were :)
Unfortunately Servlet 3.1 API introduced this dependency, so we have to
follow if we want to support it.

We'll try to compile/deliver 2.3 servlet module with JDK 1.6 as target.
So it'll be possible to use Grizzly 2.3 servlet module and Servlet 3.0
API on JDK6 (I need to doublecheck that).

We want to integrate 2.3 to Glassfish 4 and hardcode freeze for
Glassfish 4 is next Monday... so we'll release 2.3 this week or early
next week :)
Thanks.
