Tomcat 4.0.4: Which HTTP/1.1 Connector? Coyote??

[Eddie Ruvinsky <ru...@yahoo.com>]

Hello,

The release notes for Tomcat 4.0.4 say that the new
Coyote HTTP/1.1 connector now ships with Tomcat.  The
notes mention that it is more optimizied and robust
than the [soon to be deprecated] HttpConnector for
HTTP/1.1.   However, the Tomcat 4.0.4 docs haven't
been updated to include a section on Coyote, the
Coyote connector is commented out by default in the
server.xml file that ships with Tomcat, and nowhere in
the distribution does it say that the Coyote package
should be used instead of HttpConnector.
 
Besides being faster/robust, I'm wondering if Coyote
is *the* recommended HTTP/1.1 connector to use in
Tomcat 4.0.4 (i.e., in a production environment).  I'm
not looking for a "beta"-quality connector.  Could
someone please confirm?

Thanks,
Eddie

For 4.0.4, the default HTTP/1.1 connector is the supported one (although 
for a few select problems, the answer is "won't fix").
