Alexandre, I can help answer questions 2 and 3. Question 1 will need to be answered by a project committee member that has more insight on this policy.
2. CAS 6 is built on top of Java 11 features. If you don’t want to jump to Java 11 then CAS 5.3.x supports Java 8. 3. You shouldn’t need to update the CAS client on your applications.
