There is a difference in Comet API that will require all TC6 Comet applications to be patched and recompiled before deploying them to TC7:
Comet classes were moved from "org.apache.catalina" to "org.apache.catalina.comet". What do you think, is this change acceptable for us? IIRC, the cause behind this is https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48218 -- to have access to Comet classes when running with a SecurityManager one has to grant access to "org.apache.catalina" package, which exposes the server API. If we go on with this, a notice has to be added to http://tomcat.apache.org/migration.html I, personally, think that it would be better to move the classes to their old place. I think that Servlet 3.0 applications would prefer Servlet Async API, and if someone uses Comet, access to "org.apache.catalina" can be granted to those web applications explicitly.
