Tomcat reference has some info on context... and you're looking at the servlet part of 
the spec.
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/appdev/deployment.html
Says:
The complete syntax and semantics for the deployment descriptor is defined in Chapter 
13 of the Servlet API Specification, version 2.3. Over time, it is expected that 
development tools will be provided that create and edit the deployment descriptor for 
you. In the meantime, to provide a starting point, a basic web.xml file is provided. 
This file includes comments that describe the purpose of each included element.
