Greg Wilkins commented on GERONIMO-2982:
----------------------------------------
I have not found the reference for this... but I recall that the mapping of foo
to /foo was added to the spec to support backwards
compatibility to 2.2 webapps
So I think it is reasonable.
> servlet-mapping url patterns may need "/" prepended

> Project: Geronimo
> Issue Type: Bug
> Security Level: public(Regular issues)
> Components: Jetty
> Affects Versions: 2.0-M3
> Reporter: David Jencks
> Assigned To: Greg Wilkins

> Apparently if we find a servlet-mapping url-pattern that doesn't start with /
> or * we should treat it as if it starts with /, such as by prepending /
> before further processing. I haven't tracked down the spec support for this
> behavior and could use some advice from greg on whether its actually
> reasonable.
