Re: [4.1.x] Next release
Hello, About the 4.1.25 tagging which is taking place. What is going to be the status of http gzip compression in 4.1.25? See bug 18073. Or will there follow a 4.1.26-BETA in the near future with some enhanced functionality? Greetings, Ronald.

Re: [4.1.x] Next release
+1 for the next 4.1 release to include only bug fixes. A quick query of bugzilla found 744 bugs for Tomcat 4 which are not either closed or resolved. Ouch! Perhaps we should set a goal for how much this number should be reduced before doing the release. Some of these are quite old and perhaps only need to be checked to see if they are still valid. Some are for mod_webapp. Since there is no volunteer to maintain this and we have removed it from the distribution, these could probably be closed as WONT FIX.
