Really? Where did you find those?

That sounds like a sensible approach. Some valves will be easier than others. You will need to think about configuration. Valves are configured at Engine, Host and Context level with Tomcat specific configuration. Filters are configured at Context level with servlet spec configuration. You'll also need to consider how they will interact with the new Async support in the Servlet 3.0 spec. > Could someone > provide me some more information of this project? The info on http://wiki.apache.org/general/SummerOfCode2009 is the best source of information. I suggest that you familiarise yourself with the Tomcat source code, starting with building trunk (Tomcat 7 development branch) from http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/trunk There aren't really any valve bugs that need fixing so I suggest you take a look at converting the AccessLogValve to a filter to give you an idea of what is involved before your write your proposal with deliverables and timescales.
