OK, I see. It would be better if the changes were made to temporary copies of the source files, but that's not essential given that the version is rather old. > > [I can provide a diff listing if required] > > > No need, I know exactly what has changed in those files. > > > > Unfortunately, I think I have found another problem, which is that the > > README file needs to mention the TSU exception: > > > > http://www.apache.org/dev/crypto.html#inform > > > > [This presumably applies to all the later Tomcat versions as well] > > > > Sorry, I should have noticed this before as IMO it is a release blocker. > > > Having read http://www.apache.org/dev/crypto.html#inform, it makes clear > that this requirement is <quote>self imposed</quote>.
