OpenSSL issues and release plans

Hi,

OpenSSL have released the details of the security fixed in 1.0.2h. I've
looked through them quickly and it looks like at least CVE-2016-2107 is
applicable to Tomcat-Native.

Given that I haven't got 9.0.x to the point where it is ready to release
and that it is likely to take a couple more days to do that (mainly
because of https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=59226), I
propose to do the following:

Update Tomcat-Native to reference 1.0.2h (possibly the only change since
1.2.6) and tag 1.2.7. I should be able to do that later today. By the
time the release vote for that has finished, I should be in a position
to tag 9.0.x and can pick up the new Tomcat-Native just before I tag.

If all goes to plan, we should have a 9.0.x release around the middle of
next week.

Mark

+1.

Native 1.2.6 had wrong VERSIONS file (at the root of binary *.zip
files,  at native/srclib/VERSIONS in source archives)
saying APR 1.5.1, while 1.5.2 was actually used.

I'm all in favour of keeping 9.0.x and 8.5.x as close as possible.
