Hi all,

OpenSSL has announced a 3.0.5 release is scheduled for tomorrow that will include security fixes. Depending on the details of those fixes we may need a 2.0.1 release. (And a 1.2.x release.)

We currently have 2 PMC votes for this release so we are 1 vote short. There is an argument for proceeding with this release anyway (if it gets another vote) - folks can always build 2.0.0 from source with their chosen version of OpenSSL.

My current plan is wait to see if 2.0.0 gets any further votes and to wait for the details of the OpenSSL security issues and then decide what to do.

This is the first release of the Tomcat Native 2.0.x branch. The major differences compared to the 1.2.x branch are:

- JNI API has been reduced to just that required to support the use of
   OpenSSL rather than JSSE for TLS connections. The APR/native connector
   is not supported.

- The minimum supported versions have been increased to OpenSSL 3.0.x,
   Apache APR 1.7.x, Java 11, Windows 7 / Server 2008 R2

The 2.0.x branch is primarily intended for use with Tomcat 10.1.x but can be used with earlier versions as long as the APR/native connector is not used.

The proposed release artefacts can be found at [1],
and the build was done using tag [2].

The Apache Tomcat Native 2.0.0 release is
