Hi Alex,

afaik, the difference is as follows:

The JAR "javaee-api-XY.jar" contains all required APIs for a given EE
release. 

Tomcat - by design - also includes some EE APIs. To avoid duplicates
with the APIs brought in by Tomcat, there is "javaee-api-XY-
tomcat.jar", which excludes those already provided APIs (via Tomcat)
from the shaded JAR.

I admit, that the naming with the classifier "tomcat" is a bit
misleading / confusing.

Hope it helps
Gruß
Richard
