This is probably answered somewhere, but will Tomcat 9 support Jakarta EE as
well as Java EE?
No. 9.x will only support Java EE 8.

Subject: Re: EOL of Apache Tomcat 8.5 & 9
done today (I keep getting distracted with other things). It will be 31
March 2024.
Tomcat 9 is a special case. As the last major Tomcat version that
supports Java EE (Tomcat 10 onwards supports Jakarta EE) we plan to
handle it differently.
The exact plan is somewhat vague as implementation is still multiple
years (best guess 4+ years) away so while I have described this plan
several times on the users list, don't be surprised if the details
aren't always the same.
9.0.x will reach EOL in the usual way. Best guess for that is 31 March
2027 but that could be out by at least a year.
At that point 9.10.x will be created which will:
- continue to support Java EE 8
- be as closely aligned to the 10.1.x code base as it can be while still
supporting the Java EE 8 API
To put it another way, 9.10.x will have all changes seen between 9.0.x
and 10.1.x apart from the Java EE API which will remain unchanged.
HTH,
Mark

Thanks!
