    Description

      It is not possible (or I'm doing something wrong) to build mod_cluster Tomcat libs with Tomcat 8-only API.
      I hit this problem with RPM build on Fedora where I cannot download random stuff from maven central and I need to specify dependencies beforehand.

      Description

      Suggestion

      • architecture dependencies so as it is possible to build mod_cluster with Tomcat 8 API only (and Tomcat 7 API only)
      • drop Tomcat 6 and JBossWeb from 1.3.x as they are not used in 1.3.x anyway (last use of Tomcat 6 and JBossWeb is 1.2.x)

      Fedora 24 offers only Tomcat 8

      ...so does it even make sense to offer users Tomcat 7 libs RPM? At the moment, I have it disabled. Note: Former mod_cluster RPM (1.2.6) hasn't been distributing any usable tomcat integration; it has been AS7/JBossWeb one.
