Milestone Releases

[Dan McLaughlin]

For what it's worth, you are getting daily testing on 5.x from us. We
are testing 5.0 daily using the nightly SNAPSHOTS. The nightly is
going into our integration test environment nightly, and into user
acceptance testing weekly  We are running on Tomcat 10.0.37, with JDK
19, and no issues so far.

Thanks,

Dan
