I need a bit of an advice here from the commiters here. Mark maybe you could
give me some infos. But let me first ask the question:

If have fixed and tested the deploy method in the ManagerServlet and I am in
the process changing the javadoc for the ManagerServlet to what it does.
But I think this whole bug/change starts to mushroom in to something bigger the
deeper I dig in the code because there are alot of inconsistencies. I just want
to list here some of them which needs to be cleaned up in that area:

1.) Go over the Ant DeployTask and remove some deprecated Tasks and make the
DeployTask more consistent (&localWar &war mess). There are also some
invariants of the params which would cause odd behavior there.
2.) Go over the manager/text/<commands> and remove some deprecated tasks and
make it more consistent compared with its subclass HTMLManagerServlet. There
are odd things as well, I don't want to list them all here in detail.
3.) Go over the whole manager-howto.xml and describe the behavior we have
really at the moment. This is a task where I would need someone whose mother
tounge is english to double check the stuff I plan to rewrite.

I don't want to do that all in this Bug number, because I think the changes I
did to ManagerServlet#deploy(.....) and the HTMLManagerServlet already are not
that small at all and I do want to get them in first.

Possibly I should create 3 new Bugs for 1.) - 3.) and should put all the stuff
I fixed in to a patch and attach it to this one so you guys can commit it.

What do you mean?

BTW: I have done all in the trunk (Tomcat 7). How do you bring this usually
back into Tomcat 6.0.x or 5.5.x ?
