Absolutely. > 2) What are the priority TODOs we should start considering? See [1]. In my view the priority is: - handle the other control messages - especially close. - handle multi-frame messages then - follow-up on Costin's comments re a lighter-weight approach of wrapping the socket - more and better examples - a lot more JavaDoc - let the API bed down a little and then talk to Jetty about possibly aligning APIs > 3) Some examples (e.g. echo server) of how to use the current > implementation to write a servlet would be nice.

Two very simple examples that need some expansion but it should give you the general idea. > Also, please note that although this is a course project sanctioned by the > professor, we're not really doing this as a course requirement but rather > out of our personal interest in contributing to open source.
