Could you clarify what "a given branch of the classloader tree" means?

There's a nice picture in the docs:

      Bootstrap
          |
       System
          |
       Common
       /     \
  Webapp1   Webapp2 ...

http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/class-loader-howto.html

So it's ok to have the same classes in each webapp, but not ok to have them in 
a webapp and Tomcat's lib directory or visible to the system classloader (or 
combination thereof).

I've got my jdbc driver jar (along with 5 or 6 others) in WEB-INF/lib for each webapp.

That's fine and proper.

Great; thanks for clarifying!!
