Hi,
In a rush on my way to (yet another ;() meeting, so:

- The current cluster API is dead.
- JavaGroups is good.
- Clustering is important.

Or donate it ;-)
One other project I have been working with (Slide) could definitely use 
a distributed cache.

Or use something related with BSD license (see mod_backend)


I forgot to mention it, but one missing piece of the puzzle is the HTTP 
proxy(ies) sitting in front of the cluster.

It could be:
- Some webserver + JK
- Apache 2 + mod_proxy
- some yet-to-be-written NIO based proxy (which probably wouldn't need 
to know anything about HTTP; doing a dumb TCP proxy might be enough)

+1 if all new code goes in a separate module ( instead of catalina ), 
and is built as separate .jar(s).

I think it is time to stop bloating the base tomcat source and binaries.

BTW, it may be a good time to move some of the current features in separate
modules as well. ( SSI, WebDAV, etc ). For webdav - I would rather see slide
bundled with tomcat and the current code deprecated.

I'm not talking ( for now ) about a real module with descriptors or 
anything, just separate dirs in the CVS and a .jar target that can be 
included or not. 

It may be worth reopening the "minimal tomcat" discussion :-)

Maybe. If the difference is only a couple MBs, then it's not worth it, 
though.

If we do an alternate distribution, it would have to be radically 
different IMO (like for example, being a simple set of JARs without the 
complex dir structure). The laucher + the catalina.properties + future

Well, if you must - you must. 
But we shouldn't have the core depend on the clustering, just add the 
minimal stuff that you need in the session. 

If we can stop the hacks and clean something - I think 5.0 is the best 
chance.

I would preffer to have a consistent hook mechanism for everything - 
I'm not sure what callbacks will be involved in the clustering.

Bloat is not about MB or storage. It's about code complexity, potential

That's what I was thinking about - a set of jars and minimal configuration.
Eventually using only MBeans for configuration and setup.

BTW, we could use MBeans for the optional packages too. I think it works
pretty well. We'll need to get a consensus on requiring JMX for tomcat5,
but so far it doesn't seem it'll have a big impact on the code ( I did
all kind of experiments with modeler and ant lately ).

I don't care too much if it is called Coyote Action, Jk2 Handler, 
3.3 Interceptor(with a single method), or 4.0 Valve ( in multiple chains )
or Axis Handler/Chain. Or even Event/Listener.

Some time ago I started a package to implement yet-another hook, as a 
replacement for Action in coyote. I remove it because there is absolutely
no point for yet another API - any of those APIs can do the job.

All I want is a single and simple and consistent hook mechanism that is used 
for callbacks in all "extension points" ( simple is quite important :-)

Since Coyote is now used in all tomcat versions and also jk - I think
it is a good idea to use with coyote Action. But I'm +1 on anything else -
as long as we converge on a single mechanism ( it is simple
to wrap any hook - Vavle, interceptor, action. into any interface )

That depends on the class loader - if tomcat is embedded in something else
( like J2EE or some other app ) I'm not sure how it'll protect this.

Also, a number of classes are public because they are intended to be used, 
and a number of security problems may happen ( as we learned ) even if the
class is not accessible ( like the recent web.xml entity issues ).

Do you have so much free time :-) ? I'm +1 BTW.

If we reach consensus on JMX - it may be a good idea to use its class 
loading mechanism, or something very close - the model in theory is 
very good. You have full control ( using mlet tags or API ) over
the class loaders and hierarchy.

It will work if, in their classloader implementation, they call

It seems JavaGroup could be a great candidate as jakarta project,
you even got the right look :)

http://www.javagroups.com/javagroupsnew/docs/index.html

What about changing licence to BSD/Apache and ask for being
a jakarta project ?

You'll have my full +1 (and of many tomcat developpers).

Gain :

- You'll could put your tomcat jg works back in TC 4.x

- You'll provide a great API to jakarta where many projects
  could have the need of.

And of course you'll find many new friends here in ASF ...
