Just a quick note. I saw on the changelog that Tomcat 7.0.40 is using ecj 4.2.2. So I created a bundle for this ecj version (like I did for 4.2.1<http://marc.info/?l=tomcat-user&m=135966507114107&w=2>), uploaded it to Sonatype and only a few hours later it got approved. Ecj 4.2.2 is now already in the maven central repository and ready for use. https://issues.sonatype.org/browse/OSSRH-5787?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel
