I proposed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] list some days
now
that we start a subproject called web-connector where
we could put mod_jk/mod_jserv/mod_webapp with
both
native (Apache, NES, IIS) and Java
(Modules/Interceptors for
TC 3.2.x, 3.3 and 4.0)
Still no response but I really think we must
externalize
that connector stuff from Tomcat's core code
;-)

Dan, sorry for not clarifying. I'm back porting the changes to my
own company's CVS, not the Apache Tomcat's CVS. We have decided
that we need this changes on our 3.2.1 Tomcat release but can't
afford to release Tomcat 3.3 beta right now.So you can definitely check in the changes to 3.3 branch, and
not 3.2.1. I think we've discussed that and that was agreed.thanks,
shinta
