[ANN] Apache Tomcat 8.5.88 available

[Christopher Schultz <sc...@apache.org>]

The Apache Tomcat team announces the immediate availability of Apache
Tomcat 8.5.88.

Apache Tomcat 8 is an open source software implementation of the Java
Servlet, JavaServer Pages, Java Unified Expression Language, Java
WebSocket and JASPIC technologies.

Apache Tomcat 8.5.88 is a bugfix and feature release. The notable
changes compared to 8.5.87 include:

- Reduce the default value of maxParameterCount from 10,000 to 1,000.

- Correct a regression in the fix for bug 66442 that meant that streams
   without a response body did not decrement the active stream count
   when completing, leading to
   ERR_HTTP2_SERVER_REFUSED_STREAM for some connections.

- Refactor synchronization blocks locking on SocketWrapper to use
   ReentrantLock to support users wishing to experiment with project
   Loom.

- Implement RFC 9239; note the MIME types for Javascript has changed
   to text/javascript.

Along with lots of other bug fixes and improvements.
