A couple of months ago my team started looking at integrating JASPIC into Tomcat. Providing support for JASPIC in Tomcat will reduce the amount of work required to provide authentication as well as providing better consistency and portability across different Tomcat-based projects.
Based on that there has been some interest within the Tomcat community for this support and the benefits to my team, I am interested in contributing code changes to Tomcat in this area and I have just filed issue 55479 for this work. Previously we have done some investigation to utilizing the support from Geronimo and this seems like the best way to move forward. I have just started and I am about to go ahead and build the trunk of Tomcat as a first step. If anyone has any guidance on how to approach this task or anything in general about providing JASPIC support in Tomcat, it would be most appreciated.
