Coyote is a set of APIs to abstract the connectors ( http, etc ) and 
servlet container. It can be used with any kind of connector and with 
any container ( curently 3.3, 4.0, 4.1 - but it is possible to add 3.2
or even other containers ). 

tomcat-jk2 is the java implementation for the ajp13 protocol - and is
using Coyote APIs ( so it works with any servlet container supported by
coyote ). Same for the http11 implementation.

On the web server side, you can use either mod_jk1 or mod_jk2. Both 
are using the same protocol and will work with any version of tomcat
( including 3.2.x ). mod_jk2 is getting close to 'stable', but
there is still work going on.
