Hi Mark,

This sounds like a great idea to me. Security is a very important topic,
and the maturity of the Tomcat makes it a very secure choice for users. I
am sure a lot of people will be interested to join in.

What is not completely clear to me on this event; would this event be
focussed on improving the security of Tomcat from within (as a Hackathon
suggests)? Like trying to find security flaws/improvements and get them
fixed.
or is this meant to be an educational event where information is shared
about secure setups/hardening of the Tomcat in production systems? Or a
little of both?

For the educational/hardening aspect, it could be nice to team up
with/involve OWASP?

I am surely interested to pitch in on this topic!

Kind regards,

Maarten van Hulsentop
