* New upstream release
  - Refreshed the patches

* Standards-Version updated to 3.9.6 (no changes)

6. By Emmanuel Bourg on 2014-09-17

* New upstream release
  - Refreshed the patches
* Fixed the tomcat8-examples configuration (Closes: #753372)
* No longer create the common/server/shared directories under
  /var/lib/tomcat8, and use a unique lib directory as documented
  upstream since Tomcat 6. The old directories are still supported
  if inherited from a previous installation (Closes: #754386)
* Depend on libecj-java >= 3.10.0 to support the new Java 8 syntax in JSPs
* Install the missing tomcat-dbcp.jar in libtomcat8-java and use it as
  the default JDBC pool implementation instead of Commons DBCP.
* Removed the obsolete patch 0012-java7-compat.patch
* Tightened the build dependency on junit4 (>= 4.11)
* Build the Javadoc with the JDK specified by the JAVA_HOME variable
  instead of the default JDK (this fixes a build failure when backporting
  to Wheezy)
* Removed the note about the authbind IPv6 incompatibility
  in /etc/defaults/tomcat8

[ Emmanuel Bourg ]
* Team upload.
* New upstream release (Closes: #722675)
  - Updated the version of the Servlet, JSP and EL APIs
  - Switched to Java 7
  - Updated the watch file to match the Tomcat 8 releases
  - Refreshed the patches
  - Updated debian/copyright, documented the xsd files licensed under the CDDL
  - Installed the new jars (spdy, jni, websocket, websocket-api, storeconfig)
  - Updated the artifactId of the specification jars to include
    the new javax prefix
  - Added the javax.websocket-api artifact to libservlet3.1-java
  - New build dependency on cglib, easymock and objenesis
* Added a patch to include the name of the distribution on the error pages
* Use XZ compression for the upstream tarball
* debian/control:
  - Replaced Sun Microsystems with Oracle in the packages descriptions
  - Mentioned 'Apache Tomcat' in the packages descriptions
  - Standards-Version updated to 3.9.5 (no changes)
* Deploy the Tomcat artifacts in the Maven repository with the 8.x version
  instead of 'debian' to avoid conflicts with other versions of Tomcat.
* Hard coded the versions in the poms in debian/javaxpoms to fix the version
  of the dependencies for jsp-api
* Renamed the jars in /usr/share/java to tomcat8-xxx to avoid conflicts
  with other versions of Tomcat
* Added the missing descriptions to the patches
* Added a patch to ignore the failing tests
* Moved the tomcat-{servlet|jsp|el}-api artifacts from libservlet3.1-java
  to libtomcat8-java and changed their versions to the Tomcat version instead
  of the specification version.
* Removed libservlet3.1-java.links defining the tomcat-* links
  in /usr/share/java with the specifications versions
* The symlinks to /usr/share/tomcat8/lib are no longer split between the two
  packages libtomcat8-java and tomcat8-common. tomcat8-common assembles all
  the jars required by Tomcat (tomcat jars + dbcp + pool). libtomcat8-java
  deploys only the jars in /usr/share/java and the Maven artifacts in
  /usr/share/maven-repo.
* Added the EL and WebSocket APIs to libservlet3.1-java-doc
* Added a Lintian override for the incompatible-java-bytecode-format warning
  since Tomcat requires Java 7
* Added a Lintian override to clear the codeless-jar warnings
  on the tomcat-i18n jars instead of a patch turning them into zip files.
* Removed 0011-fix-classpath-lintian-warnings.patch and specified
  the classpath of jasper.jar in libtomcat8-java.manifest instead.

[ tony mancill ]
* Include tomcat-util-scan.jar in the libtomcat8-java package.
* Remove debian/NEWS (inapplicable to this release).
* Prune debian/changelog to only contain tomcat8 entries.
