Thank you for the hint Christopher. I don't think I'm entitled to make
official announcements for Tomcat, but I'll post on the user list when
the package is backported to Debian stable.

You wouldn't be making an official announcement for Tomcat; you'd be
making one about Debian. We have some community members that announce
the availability of certain tools, etc. when the become available. I
personally think it would be entirely appropriate for you to make such
an announcement on the users' list.

You might want to provide a link to the documentation for the package.
We often get questions about package-managed versions of Tomcat and the
usual reply is those things are a mess that nobody (like us) can
understand: go install one fresh from tomcat.apache.org. If you have
good documentation about how things work in the Debian system, it will
make the world a better place.

Thanks,

Great!

Could you announce on u...@tomcat.apache.org as well? You have a bigger
