:-) I was just gathering my thoughts and considering what options we have 
relating to releases (bugfix or minor).

No. Let’s do a 9.9.2 with just the two aforementioned bug fixes. We can later 
do a 9.10, some time in late February to early March, in order to pick up the 
Java 22 and other changes.

Agree. Let’s lower the risk. We’ll stay the coarse for Java 22 support in 9.10, 
as would be the case if 9.9.2 was not a thing.
