Fwd: [ANN] Apache Tomcat 8.0.11 (stable) available

[Jacques Le Roux]

Should we not consider upgrading to Tomcat 8, did someone try? http://tomcat.apache.org/migration-8.html

BTW seems that fixing regressions in Tomcat is not expected before a week (see Note)

The Apache Tomcat team announces the immediate availability of Apache
Tomcat 8.0.11.

Apache Tomcat 8 is an open source software implementation of the Java
Servlet, JavaServer Pages, Java Unified Expression Language and Java
WebSocket technologies.

Apache Tomcat 8.0.11 includes numerous fixes for issues identified
in 8.0.9 as well as a number of other enhancements and changes. The
notable changes since 8.0.9 include:

- Update to Tomcat Native Library version 1.1.31 to pick up the Windows
   binaries that are based on OpenSSL 1.0.1h

- Add support for OpenSSL syntax for ciphers when using JSSE SSL
   connectors

- Add support for the WebSocket permessage-deflate extension. This is
   currently limited to decompressing incoming messages on the server
   side.

Please refer to the change log for the complete list of changes:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.0-doc/changelog.html


NOTE: A regression has been reported in 8.0.11
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=56882
A new 8.0.12 release is expected in the next week or so to address this.
