Hi All:
I plan on updating Digester from Java 6 to 7. Digester won't even build on
the current Java version with its source set to 6!

Note that Java 7 and later are all on lndefinite Sustaining Support:

This is presumably because there are customers who need Java 7.

Hi All:
I know Tomcat uses DAEMON and supports old versions of itself.
So, reading https://tomcat.apache.org/whichversion.html, I see that:
- Tomcat 7 is EOL so we do not need to worry about that. FTR, the page says

I do not see a reason to maintain EXEC and EMAIL on Java 7 at this point,
it's simpler to maintain Commons builds locally, on GitHub Actions, and
