Well, look at the archives, because in the early stages of development, I
tried to keep you guys involved, asking for comments and ideas. But also my
patience is a limit...

It seems that what you needed was a proof of concept, and now you have it.
But anyway, as always, I don't care about it. I was happy to have it in
jakarta-tomcat-4.0, you wanted to move it.

As I said, I'm not complaining, I never did.

Well, look better...

You implied it several times (as you are doing in the next sentence).

Others are very unhappy with mod_jk's design, while being happy with my
desing, so I can assume that is a personal feeling

Re-read the archives, I tried, got flamed. Who cares. We'll see in one year
from now how many people have one or the other installed.

As mod_jk did in respect to mod_jserv, I believe. Remember I've been around
for way longer you did...

As I said before, I don't give a damn about jk or 3.3 anymore. But we went
thru that flame in the past, didn't we?

Sure... Don't you worry... They'll come with time...

Oh.. But that's a feature already available under webapp... Didn't you see
that?

What-ever, as always, talking to you, is like talking to a brick wall...
