Yes, my +1 was for the original proposal to drop Java 17 support. I think dropping Java 21 support in Spark 5 next year would be too early. Also, given the new Spark versioning policy, Spark 6 should be released in Q1 2028, so we'll have more frequent opportunities to reconsider dropping support for Java versions.
