Doing a quick scan, it looks like a good number of small fixes to 5.5.23 have accumulated over the last number of months. [See http://marc.info/?l=tomcat-dev&w=2&r=1&s=5.5.24&q=b]

I know the Tomcat developers are largely focused on 6.0 now, but is there any chance of a 5.5.24 being rolled to wrap up this backlog.

There are a few spec violations in this batch (e.g. 41869) plus the embarrassing missing MailSessionFactory.

Overall it would seem good to roll these all up one of these days -- especially given that the number of bugs fixes per month seems to be dropping off -- and thus one could argue that 5.5.24 may stand "as is" for a long time. There are a good number of open bugs against 5.5.x, but few serious ones seem to: (1) not be in a NEEDINFO state and (2) be in another area than the native connector (which is separately versioned and optional).

Thoughts?
