Hi Ted,
As r13.07 is still not released the release to go for is r12.x.
You might prefer to wait for R13.07. It will be officially released pretty soon

Multi-tenancy is straight forward: just setting the multi-tenancy property
in the general.properties file in framework/common/config. This will ensure
that users can provide the tenantID when they log in.
Creating new tenant can be done with following ant command (in the OFBiz
folder):
./ant create-tenant
But you have to ensure that the database exists on your preferred rdbms
before you invoke the command. Subsequently you can log in with the created
tenant-adminID and via webtools you can import the data sets you need.
Having a web server (e.g. apache HTTP) in front of OFBiz does not require
any configuration changes in OFBiz. Unless you want to point to a different
ajp port. Then you'll need to change that port number in OFBiz.
For more info on the aspect see:

Implementation of OFBiz on an external app server (tomcat 7) might prove a
challenge. Documentation regarding this aspect is not up to date and issues
have been reported.

I am about to do my most aggressive install to date (that is,
aggressive in terms of pushing my limits - I am a coder, not a
sysadmin). Here is what I want to do.
I have two servers, one running Ubuntu 12.04, and the other running
OpenSuse 13.1. The Ubuntu machine has Apache's web server running,
and I expect I need to install mod_jk on that machine, and somehow
have it send all requests for OFBiz to the OpenSuse 13.1 server. On
the OpenSuse 13.1 server, I already have Tomcat 7 installed. What I
want to do is install the latest stable release of OFBiz, configured
for multitenant support, onto that instance of Tomcat. The version of
OFBiz is now up to, what, 13.x, but the most recent documentation I
have found to date for installing OFBiz into an application server
(other than that provided with the distribution) refers only to
versions 9 and 10, indicating the method didn't work for version 11.
There are three things in this effort that are new to me. 1) the
multi-tenant configuration, 2) deploying OFBiz to another application
server, and 3) using mod_jk, so traffic comes in via my web server,
and it just lets Tomcat (on a different server in the LAN) handle it.
I will have the DB on yet a different machine, but doing that is
pretty much a no-brainer.
Can anyone either provide step-by-step guidance on these things that
are new to me, or point me to the most recent documentation that talks
about them (ideally referring to the latest stable release)?
BTW: In terms of coding extensions for OFBiz, does anyone have any
thoughts on using Spring and the toolset from that, or Eclipse, to do
the coding and deploying of new capabilities And would there be any
benefit from hibernate? While I have used core Java for a couple
decades, I have not used either Spring or Hibernate, and my recent
readings suggest these two as having significant benefits; but that
begs the question of if/how they ought/can be used in a project like
OFBiz.
Thanks
Ted
