*** Issue 54076 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. ***

As mentioned in duplicate issue 54076. We should remove API JARs as
well. Even for both J2EE 1.3/1.4 (i.e. JSP 1.2/2.0 and Servlet 2.3/2.4).

54076 is related, but not the same. So there are really two subparts.

Regarding the jar files in the library manager, Petr Pisl pointed out
that the jar files can be useful when developing a tag library as a
Java project. The question is how often this use case arises.

I have discussed it with Stepan a week ago. Conclusion was that JAR
files can be used from bundled Tomcat as libraries - added manually by
user or automatically by NetBeans.
I don't think that we still need bundle those JARs.

Well, that's another (third) issue. To summarize, the problems are:

1/ Whether to bundle Javadoc

The answer is no, we don't need to bundle Javadoc

2/ Whether servlet/jsp API should appear in the library repository

Although there is the taglib development usecase, I am leaning towards
not including them in the repository. Will we need to do something for
migrating 4.0 projects in that case?

3/ Whether to bundle the API jar files in the IDE. 

For servlet 2.4/JSP 2.0 jars - in theory it would be possible to
remove them, however this is risky for 4.1. The JSP parser still needs
these jars. 

For servlet 2.3/JSP 1.2 jar - we can definitely remove this one, it's
not needed.

2/
  Migrating 4.0 projects is covered by issue 54077.
3/
  servlet 2.4/JSP 2.0 - I still don't understand why we can't use APIs
from server (or at least from bundled Tomcat)

Have to be solved in 4.1

References to the servlet24-docs.zip and the jsp20-docs.zip removed 
from the tomcatint module, the j2eeri-1_4-doc-api.zip is now used 
instead.

I have filled a separate Issue #56610 for the last remining task - remove
servletapi23 module. The rest has already been fixed.
