There are workarounds for these regressions:

- Regarding this specific issue: I would just disable the compression.

- Regarding the jdbc-pool issue: it is possible to use tomcat-jdbc.jar from a 
previous release. (Either unzipping a release, or pulling the specific jar from 
Maven Central).

Release managers were at a conference, maybe are travelling, and voting for a 
new release usually takes 3 days.

The vote was unusually shortened due to one of the issues going public and I 
guess that it might be widely discussed and (ab)used.

I still do not know how this will be handled, but it may take a few days.

Watch for "VOTE" threads on the dev mailing list. If one could help with 
testing release candidates, it would help.

Best regards,
Konstantin Kolinko
