Is there any chance to get java 21 support in beanstalk?

EB added Java21 support on 25th Jan 2024

Is there anything we as a community can help to move this along. There shouldn't be a suprise here. No one is saying "Whoa, they released another LTS java! Didn't see that coming!" It took 11 months to support java 17 in beanstalk after it's release. So by that metric, 21 should be released in August, but it doesn't even look like its on the roadmap according to this: https://github.com/aws/elastic-beanstalk-roadmap/projects/1#card-71296827

Corretto 21 on AL2023 is supported on Elastic Beanstalk as of 2024-01-25: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/relnotes/release-2024-01-25-al2023.html
