Hi all,

I'm new to this list - forgive me for bargeing in (if I am).

I'd like to see the webapps distributed with Tomcat upgraded to use web 
standards. I couldn't find any mention of this in bugzilla.

* Is this a Good Thing?  (...I think it is)

* Is anyone already doing it?

* I've attached a first stab at one of the jsp pages: the ROOT/index.jsp 
page.  It uses basic CSS but I don't think I used any CSS2 features that 
might be less backward-compatible.

* I may have spare lunchtimes etc when I might slowly work my way 
through other pages ... if there is enough interest in getting this done.

Rick
