      Problem Definition

      As per the Atlassian Supported Platforms only Tomcat 8.0.x is supported. And one of our customer identified a NIO2 connector bug on 8.0.x.

      https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=60511

      Suggestion

      As some customers have certain conditions that require using Tomcat 8.5, such as using "HTTP/2", we could provide support for Tomcat 8.5

      Notes

      From http://tomcat.apache.org/whichversion.html: 8.0.39 (superseded) -> 8.5.9

      Apache Tomcat 8.5.x supports the same Servlet, JSP, EL, and WebSocket Specification versions as Apache Tomcat 8.0.x. In addition to that, it also implements the JASPIC 1.1 specification. There are significant changes in many areas under the hood, resulting in improved performance, stability, and total cost of ownership. Please refer to the Apache Tomcat 8.5 Changelog for details.
