+The current minimum versions are:
+- OpenSSL 1.0.2
+- APR 1.4.3
+
  The following version of the libraries are recommended:
- APR 1.7.0 or later, http://apr.apache.org
  - OpenSSL 1.1.1g or later, http://www.openssl.org
Older versions should also work but are not as thoroughly tested by the Tomcat

+
+It is current anticipated that Tomcat Native releases will transition to 1.3.x
+after April 2021 when the minimum version will become OpenSSL 1.1.0 and
+APR 1.5.2.
+
+The minimum version of OpenSSL is driven by the version of OpenSSL used by
+downstream distributions.
+
+The current state of OpenSSL in Debian is:
+- OpenSSL 1.1.0l in Debian 9 (EOL in June 2022)
+- OpenSSL 1.1.1d in Debian 10
+
+And in Ubuntu:
+- OpenSSL 1.0.2g in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (EOL in April 2021)
+- OpenSSL 1.1.1  in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
+- OpenSSL 1.1.1f in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
+
+
+The minimum version of APR is driven by the version of APR used by
+downstream distributions.
+
+The current state of APR in Debian is:
+- APR 1.5.2 in Debian 9 (EOL in June 2022)
+- APR 1.6.5 in Debian 10
+
+And in Ubuntu:
+- APR 1.5.2 in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (EOL in April 2021)
+- APR 1.6.3 in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
+- APR 1.6.5 in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

I consider this to be wrong. We should support only what upstream supports, with some grace period of course. Everything else is a OS vendor problem, not ours. Especially for Mark Shuttleworth's project.
