Fwd: [VOTE] Release Apache Tomcat 9.0.2

[Romain Manni-Bucau]

Hi guys,

I have 2 questions:

1. (simple ;)) is the repo released? central is not yet synch-ed
2. "java 9 fully supported": I didn't see the classloader update to
support multi-jar release or module-info respect (visibility+SPI), is
it intended or is it "support" as "can run" only?

Contributing to to Tomcat(Beginners issues)

[Mohamed Abd ALLAH]

Hello,

So driven by the motivation to  understand Tomcat inside out and to pay
back to the community. I would like to dedicate a few hours on weekly basis
to contribute to Tomcat development.

I already read the contribution guide and checked the beginners bugs

to
start with something relatively easy to debug and test,  but apparently all
of them are already taken by other contributors.

So as suggested by in the contribution document, i am asking here on the
list.Thanks a lot and looking forward!

Regards
