Please dont upload with all the issues we have in tomcat5.5 and we cant
fix easily because it would need error prone transitions of config files
via postinst scripts.

The problems are: 

 - conf vs. conf.back.
 - tomcat-users.xml handling
 - tomcat user name 
 - log files in adm group
 - log file naming
 - probably some more I cant think of yet....

I haven't looked at the package yet. It would be really nice to have it
in pkg-java svn for review as this would make the review much easier.


Cheers,
Michael
