Hi all,

Checking a project with multiple tomcat integrators (spring boot, uship,
meecrowave, tomee, ...) I realised Tomcat ecosystem is quite exploded with
tomcat-embed packaging but I kind of fail to see the benefit from there
since using plain tomcat artifacts works well

Not sure I understand your concern. There are a handful of extra JARs in the embedded namespace that provide an alternative packaging.

There was a specific user request for the embedded packaging. They wanted fewer, larger JARs.

It costs us very little to maintain those JARs.

plus embed is still marked as
experimental in the build descriptors.

That is an easy fix.

 From my window it would be great to deprecate embed jar usage, potentially
make some gap converging with default packaging, and focus on the main
packaging only and maybe drop embed one for the final 10.1 but not sure I
missed something critical.

Why? What is the benefit of removing that packaging?
