Regarding immaturity of the code, I would like to say that * This code has been there for around a year now. * The code has been bundled by apachelounge on Windows and they have done some testing and reported issues which I fixed. * I took the test cases from GNU sed and did the basic testing. * I have also done stress testing and watched for memory leaks and crashes. It seems to work fine.
This is a feature developed by Sun. Can you elaborate what else should we do before integrate it? Do you mean QA should do the testing before integrating it? As Rahul already told that the equivalent feature already existed in Sun Web Server and worked pretty fine.
