The following JEP with scope "SE" has been proposed to target JDK 26:

  525: Structured Concurrency (Sixth Preview)
       https://openjdk.org/jeps/525

  Summary: Simplify concurrent programming by introducing an API for
  structured concurrency.  Structured concurrency treats groups of
  related tasks running in different threads as single units of work,
  thereby streamlining error handling and cancellation, improving
  reliability, and enhancing observability.  This is a preview API.

The announced deadline for feedback to jdk-dev is Fri 7 Nov 20:00 UTC:

    https://mail.openjdk.org/pipermail/jdk-dev/2025-October/010572.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
