Description
The next minor release (5.6) would still support java 17. But after plan to increase the baseline version to java 21.
We already start getting issues bumping some dependencies like spotless, we also want to officially support virtual threads in that release, it would help with that too.
We currently assess that 5.7 will won't come earlier than December this year.
Please let us know if this would make an issue for you!

Research direction
Start by locating where the project defines and verifies its Java baseline, including the configuration affected by the Spotless dependency issue and any release or CI checks. Update the relevant baseline to Java 21, then verify that the build and dependency configuration remain compatible for the planned 5.7 release.
