Certainly not for the second part - the core.Request in tomcat3 has a lot
of tomcat3-specific code ( Container, ContextManager, calls to hooks to
get special info like encoding, etc ).
The BaseRequest ( or o.a.c.Request ) is focused on the
"basic" information associated with a request, as received by the protocol
adapter.
For the first part - that's true, AjpRequest is very similar in goal with
o.a.c.Request ( thanks to the refactoring you did :-).
As I said, I like o.a.coyote, but right now my goal is to see Ajp14
working, and using the existing (working) AjpRequest is easier. Also,
coyote has more than the base request - I would let this settle down.
