To the great Tomcat Devs,
tl;dr - This isn't a question, just a praise email.
Firstly, I want to say that I really appreciate all the hard work you
have all put in to this project over the years.
We are a small company but have been hosting Tomcat since version 3 (we
started on ServletExec in 1997), we were the first Australian Java Host
and now we're the only one exclusively hosting Java in Australia.ￂﾠ
Tomcat is lean, fast, secure, continually updated and friendly to use.ￂﾠ
It's kept our customers very happy ever since we started providing it.
Our wiki on web.xml is listed on GAE as the main reference for web.xml,
above the offical Servlet Spec at
https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/java/config/webxml - it
could do with an update ;-)ￂﾠￂﾠ You can find the GAE web.xml doc by
searching for "google web.xml", it's always the first link.ￂﾠ If anyone
has any new element docs to add I'm happy to add your name as a
contributor in the comments.
As for Tomcat itself, I've only suggested a couple of changes over the
years:
- catalina.policy change for when catalina.home and catalina.base are
different, which was accepted and is in catalina.policy from 7 to 10
- one regarding an error in the DIGEST authentication which was also
accepted and subsequently improved upon by Mark, in Tomcat 7.
I hope to contribute more in the future but I rarely find any problems.ￂﾠ
I'm also in contact with a dev from the TomEE team who has been great
too and hosts his blog with us.
Today we've been published in an article and I've tweeted about it and
made special thanks to Tomcat, TomEE, Ubuntu and MySQL for all for your
great work.

Anyway, I just wanted to thank and commend you all on your great,
tireless and often under-appreciated work on Tomcat, the best container
ever and any other open source projects or libraries you have been
involved in.ￂﾠ Without your hard work, the world would be stuck in the past.
Also, congratulations on the new Tomcat 10 going into production!
Best Regards,
Neale Rudd
