The Apache Tomcat team announces the immediate availability of Apache
Tomcat 9.0.0.M8.

Apache Tomcat 9 is an open source software implementation of the Java
Servlet, JavaServer Pages, Java Unified Expression Language, Java
WebSocket and JASPIC technologies.

Apache Tomcat 9.0.0.M8 is a milestone release of the 9.0.x branch and

changes compared to 9.0.0.M6 include:

- Improvements to memory leak detection and prevention including the
  change RMI memory leaks are now correctly treated as application bugs
  rather than a JRE bug

- Fix a couple of memory leaks found in Tomcat

- The HTTP Server header is no longer set by default
