It's currently in the source archives.

Also, SVN is considered by some to be publishing code (e.g. links are
usually published on the web-site) so better safe than sorry.

Just noticed - RELEASE-NOTES in source archive contains:

"Tomcat @VERSION_MAJOR_MINOR@ is designed to run on Java SE 6 and later.

In addition, Tomcat @VERSION_MAJOR_MINOR@ uses the Eclipse JDT Java
compiler for"

A few other source files also have similar tags (I searched for "@VERSION_").

I think the tags in the RELEASE-NOTES (and RUNNING.txt) ought to be
processed to correspond with the release.

This is not so clear for some of the other files - are they supposed
to be the same as the SVN versions, or should they be customised for
the release?

Also, in the Windows binary archives, service.bat includes an RC1 reference:
set PR_DESCRIPTION=Apache Tomcat 7.0.0-RC1 Server - http://tomcat.apache.org/

As do various copies of Release Notes and index.html

I assume the other binary archives are similar, but I did not check them.

I would have thought that these version references should omit the RC1
suffix, unless the code is to be released as such (which has been
known in other projects).

It's OK, just unnecessary.

In fact KEYS is present in the source archives too.
