Hi everyone,

We have a lot of open issues about ThreadLocals. 
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=66521 was opened today.

With Virtual Threads (aka Project Loom), ThreadLocals seem like a bad solution.

I've looked at the ThreadLocals in POI a few times and have always struggled to 
see what they really achieve.

Would anyone object if we just simply remove them all?

Interacting with individual HSSFWorkbook, XSSFWorkbook and their equivalents 
using multiple threads seems to be something that we don't test much and we 
could simply say it's a bad idea. Sure, being able to produce multiple separate 
docs with separate threads is definitely something we want.

Does anyone have any thoughts?

Regards,
PJ
