sudo apt-get install Tomcat7

About two weeks into learning linux on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

Issuing that command, where does that Tomcat7 come from?

Sure, it does come from the repositories.
Have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu

Also, the package itself has a maintainer, and some metainformations.

Do this in a terminal to get additional informations:

$ apt-cache show tomcat7

You should get something like this:

Package: tomcat7

 Apache Tomcat implémente les spécifications Java Servlet et JavaServer
 Pages (JSP) de Sun Microsystems, et fournit un environnement serveur web
 HTTP « pur Java » pour faire fonctionner le code Java.
 .
 Ce paquet contient seulement les scripts de démarrage pour le démon du
 système. Aucune documentation ou application ne sont incluses ici,
 veuillez installer les paquets tomcat7-docs et tomcat7-examples si vous le
 souhaitez. Installez le paquet authbind si vous avez besoin d'utiliser
 Tomcat sur les ports 1-1023. Installez tomcat7-user au lieu de ce paquet
 si vous ne voulez pas que Tomcat démarre en tant que service.

Homepage: http://tomcat.apache.org
Bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug
Origin: Ubuntu
Supported: 5y
Task: tomcat-server


If you want to get the source, you can do the following:

sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo apt-get build-dep tomcat7
apt-get source tomcat7

Then you'll get a directory with the package source (including tomcat
and the patch debian/ubuntu maintainers applied).
Then:

$ cd tomcat7-<version> (whatever the directory is named)
$ dpkg-buildpackage

will build the package from the source you just downloaded.

Franck

I'm not sure I see the same thing you are describing.

Under Ubuntu Software Center, and then from the Edit/Software Sources 
menu there is a dialog showing "Download from" on the Ubuntu Software 
tab which just says "Server for United States".  I have an option to 
pick from several US mirrors.  Tomcat7 could be coming from any one of 
those mirror sites?

I think I will just stick with using the tar.gz file from the 
tomcat.apache.org site for now until I can get a better feel for this OS.

Thanks,
Leo

It comes from Ubuntu's repository. You can check the repositories in
'Software and Updates' options in Ubuntu.
