I've thought about this for a long time, and this is where
I stand.
As many people know, this has been a somewhat recurring issue,
with JBoss blurring and obscuring the facts regarding Apache
Tomcat, in such a way that it appears that they, JBoss, control
and direct the development of Tomcat. Now
Sending somethign to SD Magazine pronto seems a no-brainer as we have a
chance of getting them to change it before they goto print with their
June issue, though I may be being stupid there, June's issue might be
hitting the stands next week for all I know.
I'll work on sending something to
Due to the timeliness of this, I plan to send it Sunday night. Given that
we're on a weekend, I doubt it will be read until Monday.
Any opinions?

Good note.
It surprises me you don't want to mention the branding issue (Apache
Tomcat vs Tomcat). I'd think that'd be a point that a publication and
commercial enterprise like SD Magazine would understand well and be
completely sympathetic to.
It's entirely possible the SD magazine intended
I did consider it, but thought that a request for:
Apache Tomcat 5.0 (The Apache Software Foundation)
would be overkill. In much the same way that they have:
Flash Lite 1.1 (Macromedia)
and yet it's correctly referred to as Macromedia Flash.
I can happily add it if there's a few +1s for doing so.
Not a big deal, just thought it might set a good precedent. Interestingly,
while they list Contribute (Macromedia) in the awards they also refer to
Macromedia Flex (Macromedia). The split seems to be about 50/50.
Also, I suggest you start the letter with a note of thanks for selecting
Tomcat as
I think the Jolt awards knew better and were trying to send a message
similar to the '94 nobel peace prize for Arafat, Peres, and Rabin (which
incidentally didn't work very well). (Or, the '98 award for Hume and
Trimble for that matter.) Instead of firing off an email to SD, why not
stop,
This was brought up separately on [EMAIL PROTECTED] too. I'll take that as a
second +1 and go ahead and change it to Apache Tomcat 5.0.
There was also a need to change 'whether the company be Sun' to 'whether
their company be Sun'. Grammar screw-up on my part.

Thanks Daniel, all good stuff. I'll incorporate it and send a new version

You've pointed out that JBoss are the contributor in your commits,

are in the same situation. How does that change the email? Do I need

Rémy,
You will probably need to resend the CCLA...i can't find in the
regular location where ccla's are recorded.
- Can u please explain what you mean by current attitude?
- Are u saying that Tomcat is *NOT* really Apache Tomcat?
- Are you saying that we need to formalize a mechanism to figure
