It would be great if you (Bob) could give Tomcat 8 rigorous testing in your environment. The more bugs you find and report the faster Tomcat 8 can come to GA. Even if you go to production with Tomcat 7, consider running in development with Tomcat 8. If it's working for you, then feel free to go to production with an alpha release of Tomcat 8 :) I've started to deploy Tomcat 8 into some my development environments for just this reason. We don't use any of the crazy new-ish features of the Java Servlet Specification, so I'll have a good environment for regression testing for basic services, resource-loading, etc. We have some production services that are very basic where I may consider deploying an alpha version of Tomcat just to get some performance, etc. data. Rolling-back to Tomcat 7 for me is as easy as editing a property file and bouncing the service so it's very cheap for me to provide this kind of testing for the community. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.14 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJSAsuYAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRY7AQQAItT/LwJF8iGtXc5PihltsKT VrAUKdDB4PlQHdFicZQ08njIbTSJPkz9106Fr79vdJa0PKCkHmB1M+qDylTr1gk6 L7yARvCh8DmSukX/TwOrufUegbE71i+eBHln23qBCSDu6nvAMKkCo8UWIj3cquOD a4bax0AYYNK83vaAjAGc16kmcz33L4mfMgSY5xynLwNsZJkBEoTInKprUKvLBiBr 0bBF/O7oYvuZDxvCGgeGi90vpfEYfmujuHfrqa5ira+KVAcwBdDmgOS6nhmYn791 6Mj+m67Q9ygm32umpEqpgm9xI4a576w9av91+CiR1iBuEEDlDAEuM3XdJ1y0myFZ 8RyX0ldzc/Z9a75sMZlRyCSo0jUXZjsLvC7jCm8FMDcRT9sXqDIGR4gMglriEaJ1 MhX8VZ/Ikd1dUVhPCLT02tJmneMZxYgSipGHjdnAQLhoOfedAnc2IHoIF7oVfDv1 D8QXsAQCKY48f2CwlzTbYeLvwuq0GVIRVfn+WB4tq9luXA7vGOeEcqtssqQlTcCN EE3Vm0hQOavh793l0FI2aNN/cbjYvyi5g6SQBnIwVkjW6MZ41VKfBsmx2+1osncl +gij9KTMkMw5jhS4lb55Qb3AfdU9L9Z31NEM7c+GU2RBA7ddZ/93EdDXjbW/Rc3Y EHO74vyNeSMZuP5j6JC7 =tppT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
