Hi Oleg
Anything else?
Please note we will still be able to add new stuff and even change
existing interfaces past the API freeze but we will have to go though a
deprecation process.
These are new features / enhancements I am about to ask for.. but implementing support for these would possibly require backward compatible API changes..

Apache Synapse would like to stop accepting new connections to put our servers into a "maintenance" mode. In this mode any in-flight requests already being served will continue as normal (i.e. reading, writing etc), but as new connections should be rejected, so that a load balancer could direct new connections to another instance in the cluster. The requirement is to then update configuration, apply patches or cleanly shutdown etc. for maintenance without effecting any in-flight requests.

Implementation wise I think this would be fairly straightforward as we can remove OP_ACCEPT from the interested ops. However, I would like to know your thoughts on this prior to moving ahead. Also do you have any plans of introducing any JMX support at HttpCore level? We can implement JMX support at the Synapse transport level and talk into the necessary HttpCore classes that hold metrics etc - but again I would like to know your thoughts

thanks
asankha
