The removal of [[RetroLambda]] is a [[good]] thing - the system was fragile. It relied on reflection and internal behavior of [[JDK]]s.

The Bck2Brwsr project has been updated to work with 2021 technologies:

No more RetroLambda. Instead of RetroLambda there is now an abstract IndyHandler interface with two implementations:
