Ok, but I think it is better to split the pure administrator stuff
from what ever kind of developer stuff.
developers who want to extend/embedd tomcat will be much more interessted
in the api-docs and specs. normal webdevelopers arent interessted in that.
2) Tomcat Development Guide
- Web developers
- extending/embedding Tomcat

ask someone who ported from jserv to tomcat :)) just the zone handling
(which was a real crap in jserv) ... and for those upgrading from servlet
api 2.2 to 2.3 there might also be some tiny changes which might result
in a major problem ...
and even the what is a ".war" file would be much help for beginners.
