>   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.

> I’ll target this JEP to JDK 26.

Hearing no objections, I’ve targeted this JEP to JDK 26.
