Maybe I've not kept up on the docs enough but ... 

I do think this thread, highlights a general confusion around tomcat. 
Over the last couple of years, there have been many 
mod_jk/jk2/webapp/warp/?? implementations, ajp versions etc, and even 
when the discussions are on the list, it's still hard to be able to say 
(for lowly thread lurkers/tomcat users like myself), tomcat X.x can use 
mod_??, on ajp?.? because they provide xyz..

It would be nice to have a page in the docs, on the general tomcat 
site, that gives a summary of what each native connector does in terms 
of features, config, performance, load balancing, web servers 
supported, whether still in development etc.

Motivation? I don't like mod_jk, I wanted to use APR as a portable 
runtime
for an Apache 1.3 module, I believe that the WARP protocol with built-in
support for auto-deployment and web-application configuration is the 
way to
go (rather than using mod_rewrite rules all the way around), and 
because I
don't like Costin :) :) :) :)

1.2.3. (BTW, all those "goals" passed over on this mailing list in the 
past
2/3 years, check the archives...)
