Good news thanks for the update. It may be some time before servlet 4 support
is released but good to know Tomcat will be ready then.But does APR support
http/2? I know other web servers now do. Also, I think Tomcat supports
websockets which has the important capabilities that http/2 has and has been
available longer. Depending upon your strategy you might want to go with that
or wait a couple of years for http/2. Remember the firewalls, proxies and other
network systems have to support http/2 before it can reach Tomcat. So it may be
by the time http/3 is approved. Regards,-Tony

Work is in progress now.

I hope to have basic support working in the next couple of weeks (it is
probably only a couple of days work but I have other stuff I need to do
first). Complete support will need to wait until the Servlet EG decides
what the API is going to look like. Until then I'll probably implement
whatever the latest thinking is in the Servlet EG.
It will be included in Tomcat 9 (it will be required by Servlet 4.0).
We may back-port support to earlier versions but that would require
significant refactoring of the I/O code to do so.
