Hello Richard,

I don't see other dependencies which would be vital to upgrade in TomEE 9.1.3.

As discussed on another thread on TomEE dev list, I think that we
should keep 9.1.x series as stable as possible until 10.x is released,
so as to unlock from the weird Tomcat deprecated dependency (Servlet 5
etc)

Is there anything else I could do to help on a 9.1.3 within coming weeks?

Thanks,
Alex
