Thanks for all the answers so far - I'll start a new thread for the first part of the process, with more details on the coyote changes. The help I need most is review and comments from people who spent most time with coyote. The goal of tomcat-lite is to be small and simple - hopefully it wont have

I for one happen to think this is a great idea (generally). More specifically, for at least one small web application (where Tomcat is stripped down and embedded), I have been tempted to strip out the servlet support code (for a number of reasons).
