I can't be a RM for 4.0.4 because I would simply remove 70% of the code, and kiddies would start crying their butts off because they don't have the manager application, or JSP support :) But if anyone is interested I'd like to explore the opportunity of a Tomcat-HA (high-availability or hard-edition), based on 4.0 without the "crap" in there, and straightening out the request-response model... Simply, take the Catalina classes, and remove piles of useless stuff (more or less what Jon does for Scarab, but to a greater degree, maybe even reimplementing some of the Standard* classes). >> I can't veto as I don't really care how you want to spend your evenings and >> stuff... > > I don't think you can 'veto' a long term plan or release.
