> Hi,
>
> This is a pre-upload request to update tomcat8 to the version 8.5.14-1
> in stretch. This version is mostly a bug fix release, it also integrates
> the fixes for 3 vulnerabilities (CVE-2017-5647, CVE-2017-5650,
> CVE-2017-5651).
>
> The full changelog is available here:
>
> http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/changelog.html#Tomcat_8.5.14_(markt)
>
> Backporting security fixes to the stable version of Tomcat has proven
> to be a bit tedious in the past, so it would be appreciable to have
> a version as fresh as possible in stretch to ease the maintenance work
> on the long term.
>
> Thank you,

ASSUMING that nothing in Debian stretch relies on the servlet4 preview
parts, then ack, please go ahead. Please remove the moreinfo tag once
the upload has been processed.
Thanks,
