Perhaps we could just ignore that? I'm a JOSM user myself but I don't
think that the rest of the world should suffer just because Java is
unhappy with our SSL.

I'm sure that JOSM users who desperately need SSL can find a workaround
(could one not e.g. have JOSM connect insecurely to localhost and then
reverse-proxy https://openstreetmap.org/ from there?)

Or perhaps there are alternative SSL stacks for Java that can be employed?

I would suggest contact engineers at Oracle who work on Java and explain them the issue. Perhaps, it could be solved in two weeks via Java auto update. The most widespread form of communication is misunderstanding. Perhaps, they are just unaware of it.

I remember couple of years ago I wrote a message to DJI Corporation asking to modify the gimbal of the camera on their drones, so that it would be possible to tilt it directly down, vertically, 90 degrees, for making images for mapping. Maybe it is a coincidence, or maybe there were numerous similar requests, but on the Phantom 3 and 4, the camera could be well tilted straight down (Controllable Range: pitch -90° to +30°). And this feature became popular not only for mapping, but among general aerial photographers and videographers.
