Don't know what you two disagree on - but I think this is a very good point. Consider my "minimal tomcat distribution" dead - for now. I'm not sure about "one distribution with --enable and --disable", but I think one distribution with different profiles ( and the option to create a profile that includes what you need and nothing else ) is the best choice. And it seems JMX plus some class loader magic plus some config can do that. Costin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
