Hello guys,

Hope I didnt miss a thread dealing with it, if so please just redirect me.

Tomcat made the choice to do its own API jars. That's not a big deal
by itself but wonder why not putting them with all "EE" api jars of
Apache, ie in geronimo specs subproject:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/geronimo/specs/trunk/

It concerns mainly:
* el
* websocket
* jsp
* servlet

Just to give you a bit more background, this question doesn't come
from nowhere. In TomEE we use geronimo API for almost everything
excepted some tomcat provided apis (servlet, jsp) until today. But
since recent Tomcat 7 got - thanks to Tomcat 8 - a refactoring of EL
part, geronimo-el and tomcat-el were no more compatible. In other
words TomEE was broken cause AstValue was refactored and method
matching more dedicated to BeanELResolver in tomcat but not in
geronimo.

Wonder if we should/can try to get something consistent accross ASF.

wdyt?
