Tomcat has a (spec mandated) minimum Java version.

To date we have supported Tomcat on any JVM that a) meets the minimum version 
requirement and b) passes the Java TCK irrespective of vendor.

So far, the change in release cadence hasn't changed that. I also don't see 
anything that would change that.

The latest Tomcat 7 8 and 9 releases all work on Java 10 and with the 11 EA 
release. Now the first 12 EA release is out we'll be testing that too.

If someone finds and reports a Java version related bug I my expectation is 
that it will be fixed. Almost certainly for the next release.

HTH,

Mark
