Colour me even more confused - this is the release notes for 2.23.0 on geoserver.org
[image: image.png] Or, if you can't view images: https://geoserver.org/announcements/2023/04/05/geoserver-2-23-0-released.html *"Java 11 Minimum* *With this release GeoServer no longer supports Java 8, and it is time to upgrade to Java 11 at a minimum. Our build system tests GeoServer in with Java 11 and Java 17 which are both long-term-support OpenJDK releases."* My existing servers are 2.15 running on JDK8 and Glassfish 4.x. Quite happy to upgrade to 2.23 running on JDK11 and Glassfish 6.x, or even JDK17 and Glassfish 7.x Can someone advise? Because what I'm being told from the documentation, and what I'm experiencing on the ground don't seem to marry up...
