Hello,


I asked Ubuntu-devel-discus if it's possible to integrate TOMCAT 9.0.54 in the 
official repositories of Ubuntu 20.04 as it helps fixing major security issues 
on TOMCAT installations.

(https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-discuss/2022-July/019297.html)



They responded with the following:

Is it possible from anyone from your side to help with the stability and 
testing of the version 9.0.54 to satisfy the SRU policy of Ubuntu?



Thank you in advance.

Rhea
