To clarify: 1. Downloads/Artifacts published for users via the official Cassandra5 repos (eg containers) are built on 11 and can be run on 11 or 17.
2. There are no known issues building on JDK17 then running on JDK17 if end-users wish to do this themselves. ?

It just means that there are no artifacts which were built with Java 17. "Experimental in CI" should be rather "Experimental (self build)".

Yes, there is nothing specially applied in 5.0.5 code/config for this purpose, it is only a doc change actually. I can update the website to reflect the doc change but it may take some time (like 1-2 weeks..) because I have not done it yet.

Updating docs without actually releasing it does not make sense so 5.0.5 would need to be out first.

Do you think it will definitely be in v5? Any chance to do it sooner, any reasons not to? I am working with some folks who want to adopt v4+ in their prod envs, but can't due to internal policy of running anything experimental in prod.
