It's more a question than a request. I was really sad with Pier
reaction. I really don't want to appear as a someone disturbing the
Tomcat Project.
As many others today, I wonder about the future of OpenSource and
projects independance when corporations like IBM and Sun put (or hire)
so many of the core developpers.
It's a great thing that such companies goes to opensource.
But if major decisions are allready taken behind the scene, there is a real
risk for OpenSource.....
