That fix won't work for tomcatjss because they use the socket directly iirc. Short of putting the connector back tomcatjss has to be updated to work with NIO before it will work again. I'm trying to make it easy on the Fedora folks by not updating to 8.5 until they have a solution for dogtag, so the sooner that is resolved (I think we've already made suggestions on how to fix it) the sooner I can update Fedora Rawhide to 8.5 and push for adoption there. >>> Anything else? >> >> I can't remember of other issues with the transition to 8.5. > > OK, that is pretty good news then. > > Assuming we get the BIO issue fixed, might a transition to 8.5.x be > looked at again?
