The following JEP is proposed to target JDK 26:

  517: HTTP/3 for the HTTP Client API
       https://openjdk.org/jeps/517

  Summary: Update the HTTP Client API to support the HTTP/3 protocol, so
  that libraries and applications can interact with HTTP/3 servers with
  minimal code change.

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 20:00 UTC on Wednesday, 10 September, 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 26.
