The following JEP is proposed to target JDK 25:

  521: Generational Shenandoah
       https://openjdk.org/jeps/521

  Summary: Change the generational mode of the Shenandoah garbage
  collector from an experimental feature to a product feature.

Feedback on this proposal from JDK Project Committers and Reviewers [1]
is more than welcome, as are reasoned objections.  If no such objections
are raised by 13:00 UTC on Tuesday, 27 May, or if they’re raised and
then satisfactorily answered, then per the JEP 2.0 process proposal [2]
I’ll target this JEP to JDK 25.

- Mark
