For the first error - I am sure I just need to look through bugzilla, or the archives and just need to add something to the README. (User error)
This works for me, Bill, and presumably others. There are reports on tomcatw in BZ, so it must be at least an uncommon error (given the code have stayed stable for a few releases). Even if the bug is mildly common, the old shell scripts are still there. I can put a note stating that they can be used in case the new .exe wrapper somehow fails.
I'm staying by my "beta" rating. Again, we cannot continue releasing alphas just because there could be some non obvious bugs in the build. In the current system, the period before the vote is meant to check if there are no showstoppers. If the build is mostly clean, it must be a beta, otherwise, it merely delays wider testing and finding bugs, which is *bad*.
Ok. I'm willing to vote for a (weak) Beta in exchange for a release-note that Tomcat doesn't implement the current-draft's Authentication requirements.
What is your plan, BTW ? Wait a bit more for the deadline to see what the final specification will say ? (IMO, the old auth matching rules were not very good)
