There have been a large number of feature additions and bug fixes to the
Tomcat 4.0 code base since Tomcat 4.0-beta-1 was published in
January. This includes implementation of some changes to the servlet API
that have been approved by the JSR-053 expert group, and a fix for a cross
site JavaScript vulnerability that was reported over the weekend.
I propose that we cut a Tomcat 4.0-Beta-2 release that reflects these
changes and improvements. The proposed schedule:
* Release manager: Craig McClanahan
* Code freeze in the "jakarta-tomcat-4.0" repository, except for approved
but fixes, through Thursday (March 22, 2001).
* Tag and release 4.0-beta-2 on Thursday night.
* Open repository for further enhancements on Friday.
Before voting, you might want to see my subsequent message on overall
Tomcat 4.0 planning and strategy.
