The proposed Apache Tomcat 8.0.21 release is now available for voting. The main changes since 8.0.20 are: - Enable Tomcat to detect when a WAR file has been changed while Tomcat is not running. - Add support for Java 8 JSSE server-preferred TLS cipher suite ordering. This feature requires Java 8. - Update to Tomcat Native Library version 1.1.33 to pick up the Windows binaries that are based on OpenSSL 1.0.1m and APR 1.5.1 - Implement a new feature for AJP connectors - Tomcat Authorization. If enabled Tomcat will take an authenticated user name from the AJP protocol and use the appropriate Realm for the request to authorize (i.e. add roles) to that user.
There is also the usual collection of bug fixes, new features and performance improvements.
