There is going to need to be a lot of refactoring for this. I'm not sure if a patch is the right way to go. Neither am I sure what the best way is. Maybe a git branch (e.g. on github) with a series of patches? I don't have enough experience with the git-svn integration to know if that would be easier or harder to deal with. In terms of what needs to be done: - the end result needs to be useable by both Jasper and Catalina - that pretty much means a new package and JAR under o.a.tomcat - Jasper cannot depend on Catalina (hence why everything needs to move packages) - the things that need to move to this new package - the web.xml parsing (i.e.the digester) - the annotation scanning - the SCI scanning - the merging - the object representation of web.xml - switch everything over to the new implementation This is a big change but most of it is just moving stuff around. It isn't changing functionality (well it is - JspC would process fragments which it doesn't currently for example but all the functional changes would be improvements of this nature) I suggest making a proposal to the dev list. If that gets support, I'd be happy to help with this. I suspect in that case a series of svn moves and patches would follow.
