Michal Maczka commented on MNG-415:
-----------------------------------

I understood how the scopes work and that why I am proposing is to change it as 
this seems to be the simplest
solution for this problem.

Really what you want to bundle in wars, ears and such  artifacts are only 
runtime dependecies.
servletapi is compile time only dependency but __it is not__ a runtime 
dependecy so it should not be bundled in wars. 

This seems to be natural for me and apparently for some other people.
Look at the subject of the thread:

"how to exclude compile time only jars from .war?"
