I believe we should remove undertow from testing again for the same
reasons as last time. Although the package is up-to-date no other
package in Debian (except syncany in experimental) is currently using
it. Undertow would be an essential requirement if someone wanted to
introduce the Wildfly application server to Debian.

There was apparently some interest in the past but no progress has
been made so far. Since we already have two excellent alternatives in
Debian, tomcat and jetty, maintaining yet another Java web server in
Debian stable releases (without any reverse-dependencies) does not seem to be
a good way to use our resources.

I still intend to maintain undertow in unstable, perhaps someday there will
be a contributor who wants to complete the work and maintain undertow
in stable. Compared to tomcat and jetty, I also find the information
policy of security vulnerabilites disappointing which makes
maintaining undertow in stable releases unnecessarily difficult.

Debian 11 has been released. Let's close this one for now. Hopefully there will
be a use case for undertow in Debian 12. ;)
