Apache Tomcat version 6.0 implements the Servlet 2.5 and JavaServer Pages 2.1
specifications from the Java Community Process, and includes many additional
features that make it a useful platform for developing and deploying web app
-lications and web services.

'daemon'. No need for the port to create a PID file at install time
(it would just be eaten by rc.d/cleanvar anyway).
- Use 'ps -o comm' to grab a suitable procname. 'ps -o command' is not
reliable enough.
- Bump PORTREVISION since these changes fix broken rc script operation.
Approved by: maintainer timeout (as part of previous update)
subvert the 'check_pid_file' procname check by setting it from the output
of 'ps'.
Remove the previous attempt at handling this problem, which was to put
a wildcard in procname. I'll wear my pointy hat for that bogus hack.

These changes apply to all ports, unless mentioned otherwise:
- Move jakarta-tomcat55 to tomcat55 (it is no longer a Jakarta project). [6]
- Improve the tomcat55 rc script. Fix PID handling. Improve the
shutdown process. Use USE_RC_SUBR to its full potential. [2]
- Backport tomcat55 rc script to the other tomcat ports. This allows
us to pass command line arguments to the JVM. Noted in UPDATING.

- Change ownership of installed files. All files are now installed
with default uid/gid (root:wheel) except for those in the conf/, logs/,
temp/ and work/ directories. [5]
- No longer install tomcatXXctl binary. rc scripts are more flexible
and can be reconfigured without recompiling.
- Remove AUTO_START and STOP_TIMEOUT (replaced with rc tomcatXX_stop_timeout).
- Remove a long list of sed expressions in favour of SUB_LIST.
- Move pkg_{,de}install to files/pkg_{,de}install.in. Add them to
SUB_FILES. Tidy up substitutions and remove hardcoded values.
- Some nonfunctional tidying and removal of Makefile cruft.

2. move the orignal config file to ${APP_HOME}/conf.orig, I think it would be helpful if the config files have been changed.
