We noticed that the main branch now requires Java 21 as the minimum version.

This is a concern for our development teams because several of our applications still run on Java 17. An immediate version bump would effectively cut them off from future updates and bug fixes (including the migration to Spring Boot 4).

Given how widely Resilience4J is adopted, we believe this situation is not unique to us.

Would it be possible to delay this Java 21 requirement, so that teams have adequate time to plan and execute the migration?
