139 <h3>15 November - JK2 is officially unsupported</h3>
141 <p>JK2 has been put in maintainer mode and no further development will take place.
142 The reason for shutting down JK2 development was the lack of developers interest.
143 Other reason was lack of users interest in adopting JK2, caused by configuration
144 complexity when compared to JK.
146 <p>The latest official JK2 release is 2.0.4.
148 <p>JK2 will have it's successor within core Apache2.1/2.2 distribution.
149 We have developed new <b>proxy_ajp</b> that is an addition to
150 the mod_proxy and uses Tomcat's AJP protocol stack. It is developped in httpd-2.1
151 and integrated in it. We have also developed a new <b>proxy_balancer</b> module
152 for load balancing http and ajp protocol stacks.
154 <p>JK will be fully supported for all other web servers. The next JK release is
155 planned for the end of November. Lots of code from JK2 has been ported to JK
