I was thinking at JDBC pool for Datasources management as an
alternative to Tomcat DBCP pool based on Common DBCP.

May be you could resend a new vote, there is many new commiters today,
they may be interested.

I know, but having it bundled with Tomcat is allways better,
especially when you are working with community edition of Tomcat.

+1 to have it on ASF snapshot repo.

It's a gage of stability.
Default datasource factory could still use common-dbcp implementation,
but jdbc-pool could be provided also.
