Hi, You know, when I was putting the balancer app in tomcat proper, I was thinking it'd be great if we had a place for these extra things that don't quite belong in tomcat itself, but are useful accompaniments. We could do this any number of ways, such as sourceforge or a contrib section of the tomcat CVS, but at the time I was too lazy to pursue. Now that I see these filters, I think they belong in the same space, so maybe it's time to think about this a bit further.
Of course this comes up when I'm going on vacation ;) Yoav Shapira Millennium Research Informatics >-----Original Message----- >From: Tim Funk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Thursday, June 17, 2004 8:13 AM >To: Tomcat Users List >Subject: [ANNOUNCE] Servlet Utilities 0.1 > >I threw together a few filter utilities.
