As Kevan said, I'm not yet a Geronimo committer, but I've been actively providing patches around AHC, and I hope I'd be a committer soon. It'd be nice to become a Mina committer as well. :) I agree the right thing to do is for us to resubmit patches to Mina. Since the version of Mina the Geronimo AHC is based on is 1.1.x, I suspect simple copy just won't work. We could essentially "replay" our patches (presumably in the same order), making sure things work correctly at each step. How does that sound? Thanks, Sangjin
