I'm a bit lost with this thread. Are people suggesting I should submit a
patch. I really wouldn't know where to begin looking.

That's where the discussion was heading.

Tomcat is Open Source.  The first place to look would be SVN.

Hi everyone,

I've done this and was naturally quite nervous about it having never
contributed to anything in this way.

That's quite normal :)

It gets better once you do it more regularly ;)

Would It be too much to ask to
get some feedback if you have time?  I'd really appreciate it.
Feedback about anything from the code changes to if you feel the
bugzilla report was adaquate.

It was a good initiative and I'm sure we will have a look at the patch. Please be patient though. If you don't see any progress (comments in the Bugzilla issue), then it is fine to nag after about one or two weeks.

I do honestly appreciate that you are all busy but It could go a long
way to encouraging new users to help chip in if they felt there was
adaquate feedback. Much better to be honest though than to pamper to
them. If anythings wrong with what I did I'd love to know but If it
was okay I'd like to know also.

If it gets committed to the Tomcat source, you will see, whether there was a need to change anything. All changes applied to the code are public.

If this is a subject for the dev mail list then I'd appreciate being
told that too. I didn't want to interrupt the dev mail list as it
seems pretty busy with svn commits and bugzilla reports.

It is in the middle of the two lists, since most of the discussion was here (users) I understand you reply here. If there is need to discuss technical details of the patch, the discussion will switch over to Bugzilla, or if the discussion switches topic, like starting to discuss a more general implementation thing it might switch to the dev list.

In case your not in a threaded email client the link was
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=49811 again.

Thanks for starting to contribute!

Regards,

Rainer
