Notes from meeting chat:

- Small effort: Proposal to drop Java 8 now, so GeoServer 2.22 would Java
11 and Java 17 only, Tomcat 9 and Jetty 9
- Plan for: Update to Jakarta during GeoServer 2.23 release cycle

Reference:
- https://www.eclipse.org/jetty/download.php
- Jetty 11 / Jakarta Namespace / Servlet 5.0 / JVM 11

https://tomcat.apache.org/whichversion.html
- Tomat 10 / Jakarta Namespace / Servlet 5 / JVM 8 or greater
- Tomcat 10.1 beta / Jakarta Namespace / Servlet 6 / JVM 11 (beta)
