Servlet TCK passes with security manager for HTTP BIO
Servlet TCK passes with security manager for HTTP NIO apart from
CLIENT-CERT [1]
Servlet TCK passes with security manager for HTTP APR/native
Servlet TCK fails with security manager for AJP BIO [2]
Servlet TCK fails with security manager for AJP APR/native [3]
JSP TCK passes with security manager for HTTP BIO
EL TCK passes with security manager

I don't see any show-stoppers in the current open bug list.

The following issues were noted:
- [1] https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=49284
- [2] Security manager specific issues - fixed in r947717
- [3] Async issues - may be one issue breaking subsequent tests

[1] has been thay way for numerous stable 6.0.x releases, [3] can be
worked around by not using APR/native and [2] is unlikely to be an issue
given that the use of a security manager is pretty rare.

My Beta vote is based more on what I expect the early adopters will
discover rather than these issues.

I'd like to get 7.0.0 out there ASAP and start getting some user feedback.

Mark
