[Bug 1539903] [NEW] tomcat-8 in main for upcoming 16.04 LTS

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Dear Maintainer,

current tomcat8 seems to be still targeting universe section only for
the upcoming 16.04 LTS and tomcat7 main.

As i understand it this also means tomcat8 not being covered by LTS 5
year support but only the older tomcat7.

Is it still possible to tomcat8 promoted to main for 16.04?

If not what is blocking this decision and/or could be done to help it?

Note:
I am trying to get info for this question for a while via the 'Answers' system but could not get any answer there. So reporting as a bug now.
