Seriously?!?! Why does this effort keep getting blocked?!?!? This is a huge Search engine issue. For crying out loud .. Search engines SLAM sites that use redirects, particularly on the main page!!!
If its not going to be fixed, Apache should seriously consider saving other developers the grief I've been going through by either (a) scrapping the standlone notion altogether so as not to confuse or (b) puttin a HUGE red dislclaimer on the download page that says "the product is not commercially viable". Could someone please confirm for me if this will be fixed in a near-term future release? If not, I guess I need to completely scrap use of Tomcat standalone and start looking at other products. :-\ Thanks.
