Rough plan for Tomcat 8
The major refactorings planned for 8.0.x are complete. There are a few minor refactorings that can either done before the first stable release or (if they turn out to be a little bigger) left until 9.0.x. Therefore I have the following tentative plan in mind: - start the next 8.0.x RC release process shortly - release the next 8.0.x RC early next week - allow a week or so for further testing - wait to see if anything is badly broken - fix what is broken - if nothing is too badly broken, release 8.0.0-alpha If everything thing goes to plan, we should have a 8.0.0-alpha by early December.

Since there was never a 7.1, I suppose there will be no 8.1 either, but instead feature additions here and there in the 8.0 branch ? Rémy

Since there was never a 7.1, I suppose there will be no 8.1 either, but instead feature additions here and there in the 8.0 branch ? My personal preference is to add features to 8.0.x but an invasive new feature or a significant delay in Java EE 8 are two things that would make an 8.1.x branch more likely. At this point most of the ideas I have are more around refactoring than new features and those could wait until 9.0.x On a related note, when I ran the unit tests last night I saw a couple of intermittent failures that I'd like to try and get to the bottom of before tagging the next RC.
