Sure, If there isn't a particular feature you'd like to see or a particular bug you'd like to fix (that is how most folks get started) then I'd suggest reading through the open Tomcat bugs (including the enhancements), pick one that you find interesting and write a patch. Some of them will already have patches but the older the patch is, the more likely it is not to apply cleanly. If you find a bug you are interested in and it has a patch then you could check if it applies cleanly and if not, provide an updated patch for the appropriate Tomcat versions (bugs usually need patches for 7.0.x, 6.0.x, and 5.5.x, enhancements usually need patches for 7.0.x and 6.0.x). If you want somewhere simple to start, I'd suggest the following (in no particular order) 45428 - If Tomcat is forcibly stopped, trigger a thread dump first to show what was keeping it running 47281 - Make JDBCStore more efficient 50175 - Making memory leak detection optional on shut down Mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
