Why should the LTS follow with non-latest stable tomcat? With the release of ga tomcat 7 it's safe to assume that tomcat6 has reached maintenance-only mode.
The changelog from 6.0.28 to 6.0.32 is big, but changes are not breaking; some more enableable features, mostly conformance fixes or bugfixes preventing memory leaks. To keep looking forward to year 2015 (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS) and the java server applications; it might be good to expect that especially open source products will keep working with the tomcat6, specifically the latest stable, not an "almost stable" version. If the latest-maintenance-mode stable strategy is unacceptable, then providing the latest stable in backports should be? I do not think that maintaining a backport-branch starting from 6.0.24 should be considered at all. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/787496 Title: tomcat6-user 6.0.24 with confluence deadlocks -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
