Tomcat 8. Implementation complete? Best guess is a couple of months. The more help we get with the EL 3.0 implementation, the sooner we'll finish. Stable? Best guess is late this year / early next. > I'm talking about new servlet, JSP, EL, etc, specs, not about > non-web-tier stuff that's not even part of Tomcat. Servlet 3.1 Implementation complete. The HTTP upgrade code is very well tested as it is used as the basic for WebSockets. The other areas are less well tested. JSP 2.3 has minimal changes from 2.2 - mainly small changes due to changes in EL. It isn't complete but could be within a day or so of the EL being complete. EL 3.0. The API changes have been completed. The current focus is adding unit tests for the new API elements. Once the unit tests for the API are complete, work will start on the new syntax. This is where the bulk of the work remains for Tomcat 8. WebSocket 1.0 Implementation complete. Both client and server code pass the Autobahn testsuite. There are folks stress testing this implementation at the moment and that has highlighted a few implementation (and spec) issues. Those issues should be resolved (although I haven't looked at the dev list yet this morning...) So overall, I think progress looks pretty good. Folks that want to try out these new features can build Tomcat 8 from trunk (it really is very easy - ask here if you need some pointers). Snapshot releases are available for those folks that want to help with testing but can't / don't want to build Tomcat for themselves. Details on the dev list.
