Does not really fit into their open source initiative.  Anytime we mention
Tomcat as a supported product for our tools, Oracle's prod. Management team
cringes.  They are not seeing between the lines that the app server has more
stuff than most organizations desire; tomcat solves most requirements.
However, for complete scalability, Oracle does win over Tomcat.  

Yet, the OpenSource community is adding features to Tomcat for that purpose.
For product vendors, Tomcat is great because the cost for licensing is a big
Goose Egg.

I have the impression that Oracle isn't keen on supporting Tomcat with iAS.

Instead, OC4J is supposedly more compliant with J2EE and is faster.

How popular is Tomcat?

Tomcat is being mentioned more and more often at our site, I am wondering
whether we are headed for a collision at some time in the future.

How does this all fit in with Oracle's Open Source and PHP initiative?

Patrice.
