It sounds good. If it is minor, I can apply the patch.
Or (if everybody agrees), we can give the CVS write
permission.


Updating to eliminate the BlockContext stuff is minor - updating to 
generate a seperate api and impl jar is somewhat dependent on the 
existing seperation of [interfaces + exceptions] from [clases] in the 
ftp codebase.  I noticed that there is a seperate /interfaces directory 
in the source tree - is it safe to assume that this represents the ftp 
server API?  If so, there is not a lot to do (some build.xml editing).

Even so, I would give Timothy write access so he can get on with the 
updates and we can do more testing/validation/enhancement cycles.

I have made changes to the FTP server codebase
     

locally and have succeeded in getting it to execute
in both merlin v3.0 (using new excalibur and
cornerstone jars) and the phoenix 4.0.3 distro that
comes with the server.
   

The changes were fairly minor in about 1/2 dozen
     

files.
   

Would somebody want these files, or would like for
     

me to check them into the codebase?
   



If I had write access to the codebase, then I'd do
     

a CVS commit on my
   

changes.  Otherwise, I'll just wait for someone to
     

ask for the mods.
   

Rana is the main man concerning the FTP server (on
cc). I think it would 
be really interesting to talk with him about helping
out with a 
seperation of the api and impl which would make
reusability of the 
service much easier.  For example, I could declare
an FTP api jar in my 
root container and include the ftp server container 
as the 
implementation.  Without an API/impl seperation I
have to include 
everything into my classloader (which is kind of
icky).
