The following JEP with scope "SE" has been proposed to target JDK 24:

  487: Scoped Values (Fourth Preview)
       https://openjdk.org/jeps/487

  Summary: Introduce scoped values, which enable a method to share
  immutable data both with its callees within a thread, and with child
  threads.  Scoped values are easier to reason about than thread-local
  variables.  They also have lower space and time costs, especially when
  used together with virtual threads (JEP 444) and structured concurrency
  (JEP 480).  This is a preview API.


The announced deadline for feedback to jdk-dev is Wed 30 Oct 16:00 UTC:


    https://mail.openjdk.org/pipermail/jdk-dev/2024-October/009548.html

If there are no unresolved objections at that time, then the JEP will be moved
to the Targeted state, indicating that the feature is expected to appear in
the specified release of the JDK Project.  For more information about states,
see the JEP Process document:

    https://openjdk.org/jeps/1

A dashboard that lists JEPs with "SE" scope may be found via a link on this
