Partially lack of interest, partially because it was based on the same pre-Coyote code as code as the older BIO connector org.apache.jk.server.JkCoyoteHandlerwhich which was also dropped and partially because I was looking for any excuse to make the code base smaller, more consistent and easier to maintain. I still have going through the 7.0.x code and purging anything that is no longer used on my to-do list (maybe once I figure out what on earth is causing bug 49884). The obvious stuff has gone but I suspect there is a lot more. There is a Coyote replacement for BIO: org.apache.coyote.ajp.AjpProtocol but not for NIO. Personally I have no urge to write another connector but the nice thing about the ASF is if that is an itch someone wants to scratch then they are free to do so.
