hello all - very new builds of #osgeolive are starting for FOSS4G Belem. 
I see Ubuntu noble is preferring openjdk-21-jdk ? Is this surprising or 
a problem here? .. looking forward to another stablegeoserver in 2024

: Java 21 is not officially supported by GeoServer, as we don't have any 
test deploy with it. But in practice, we do run builds over it, and the 
GeoServer Cloud project (which repackages GeoServer as a set of 
micro-services) runs on Java 21... so it cannot be that bad (some tweaks 
to the startup scripts might be needed). If you want to stay with 
something that we support (as in, there are deploys off), keep Java 17.
