Thanks Filip for your continuing support of the Geronimo project, and
of course for the important contributions you make to the Tomcat
project. It must be frustrating to take a step back when so much
progress has been made. But you did the right thing for the
community and I'm confident things will get back on track quickly.
Best wishes,
Paul

I had no choice but to follow what was going on. I'm not sure what
is going to happen to this code base at this point, there is a lot
more bs to be resolved before anything happens.
I'm waiting to see if the board will say anything about the issue,
if they stay dormant, then most likely that codebase will to. There
is no way an API change like that will make it's way into a stable
branch like 6.0.x.
sorry about the hassle, but I had little support keeping it in
trunk, the decision to move it to sandbox had nothing to do with
comet, or anything else, simply egos that got in the way of
rational decisions.
Once again, my apologies, but you can't say I didn't try :|

FYI, the Tomcat team decided to move tomcat/trunk to sandbox
while details over RTC vs. CTR and their comet implementation are
being resolved. The Geronimo 2.x Tomcat assemblies use a patched
version of what was in tomcat/trunk for the enhanced annotation
support. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-3206
for details on how Geronimo's patched version of Tomcat is built.
I raised a concern about moving trunk to sandbox since it's the
only branch that contains the annotation support needed by
Geronimo. A committer responded that he will think about
maintaining a "patchset" with this annotation support. See http://
