Hi Sandro, I would love to help in this project, but my time is limited by other projects, when you have the skeleton/documentation please let me know.

For sure this feature is not my priority (in respect to my work on Pivot), I have small time to dedicate to Pivot, and this project could make me delay my other activities on Pivot. My/our idea was to make something really useful and not only a Demo (interesting but it's always a Demo), based on a real-life requirements, to use also as a test to see in Pivot need some improvements (following the "Eating your own dog food" rule, not for other Pivot developers, but surely for me). Other reasons were that Tomcat is one of most common and known Java Application Server so any Java Company could see our work, and also staying all under the Apache Home maybe we could get some other help in this project. I agree with Greg, the best here would be to have some Tomcat developer to help us, in direct way or maybe also on suggestion / enhancements if required and something has started in this direction. Then, the other, classic ideas on Pivot: the GUI Builder, etc ... I have another idea: a GUI Prototyping Utility (like many other products), but also this is not a strategical one I suppose. In any case, I/we haven't time limit on this (the subject could be Tomcat 7, because some features like persistence of JMX settings will be implemented in that release), so I could start to analyze the problem and start to write some document (and maybe some code skeleton), on out skunk (experimental) area under Subversion, and let's see what happens (or if someone join us in this effort), ok ? As always, comments and suggestions are welcome ... Bye, Sandro
