Being an old-time Samba hacker (worked with Andy Tridgell probably 5/6 years
ago, God knows whether he remembers my name) this definitely looks cool,
also because we received (Paulo, correct me if I'm wrong) a couple of
requests for that at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The only thing I'm concerned about is JCIFS's license, LGPL which basically
precludes us to include in our source tree, as we can't really deal with its
"viral" aspect.
You said you've "done minimal modifications" to JCIFS, but those as well
will have to be covered by the LGPL, and so, despite the fact I like _a_lot_
what you did (although I'm not a CIFS PDC/BDC user myself anymore), I can't
see an easy way out...
It would be possible, though, if your modifications were integrated by JCIFS
itself into the core, and if (by poll of this group) we decided to accept
code importing that library in Tomcat...
