| <section name="Introduction"> |
| |
| <p>The Tomcat documentation integrates the |
| <a href="https://comments.apache.org/help.html">Apache Comments System</a>. |
| It allows users to add comments to most documentation pages. The comments |
| section can be found at the end of each page.</p> |
| |
| </section> |
| |
| <section name="Allowed Content"> |
| |
| <p>Please use the Apache Comments System responsibly. We can only provide |
| this service to the community as long as it isn't misused.</p> |
| |
| <p>The comments are not for general Q&A. |
| Comments should be pointed towards suggestions on improving the documentation |
| or server. Questions on how to use Apache Tomcat should be directed |
| to our <a href="https://tomcat.apache.org/lists.html">mailing lists</a>.</p> |
| |
| <p>Comments may be removed by moderators if they are either |
| implemented or considered invalid/off-topic.</p> |
| |
| <p>HTML is not allowed in comments, and will just display as raw source code |
| if attempted. Links that do not point to an Apache site (*.apache.org) will |
| need approval by a moderator before the comment is visible to regular visitors.</p> |
| |
| </section> |
| |
| <section name="License"> |
| |
| <p>Any submitted comments must be contributed under the terms of the |
| <a href="https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0">Apache License, Version 2.0</a>.</p> |

| <section name="Verified Users"> |
| |
| <p>Verified users gain the Apache feather next to their name, |
| and may post comments with links in them without requiring approval |
| by a moderator before the comments are shown. Being a verified user |
| in itself does not give you moderating rights. If you are interested |
| in becoming a verified user, please contact us on the |
| <a href="https://tomcat.apache.org/lists.html#tomcat-users">users mailing list</a>.</p> |
| |
| <p>All ASF committers are automatically verified users.</p> |

| |
| <section name="Moderators"> |
| |
| <p>Moderators are allowed to mark comments as "Resolved", "Invalid" |
| or "Sticky", remove marks, approve comments e.g. if they contain |
| a link, and delete comments. Moderators can also subscribe to new |
| comments and comment updates and use the dashboard to gain some |
| overview over all comments of a site.</p> |
| |
| <p>To use the moderation features, you need to login to the comments |
| system. Furthermore you will need to allow cookies to be set for |
| comments.apache.org (this is done using a secure https cookie). Once |
| logged in as a moderator you will see additional moderation |
| options attached to each comment.</p> |
| |
| <p>If you are a long time follower of the Apache Tomcat projects |
| and you are interested in becoming a moderator, please contact us on the |
| <a href="https://tomcat.apache.org/lists.html#tomcat-users">users mailing list</a>.</p> |

| |
| <section name="Privacy Policy"> |
| |
| <p>No data except what you personally submit is kept on record. |
| A cookie is used to keep track of moderators and other people |
| who wish to create an account to avoid having to enter their |
| credentials whenever they wish to post a comment.</p> |
| |
| <p>To prevent spam and unsolicited comments, we use a digest of |
| visitors' IPs to keep track of comments posted by them.</p> |
| |
| <p>Entering an email address when you post a comment is completely |
| optional, and will not be shared with anyone. If you enter an |
| email address, it will be used to notify you when someone posts |
| a reply to one of your comments, provided you have registered |
| an account and validated your email address.</p> |
