No, I don't think so. The HTTP/1.1 stack should work with 1.1 (I can't find
any Java2 code in there).

Also, the HTTP stack is just the stack. It doesn't include the thread
pooling code, or the network handling code.
The Catalina adatpter, and the Catalina connector both require Java2, OTOH.

Since Coyote = more or less 1/2 of the Tomcat 3.3 core (according to
Costin's definition of the TC 3.3 core), it should be easier to adapt.

Note: I got complaints from Costin about the request and response objects.
Well, this is only the first version, and I had limited objectives (which
were: write a HTTP/1.1 stack on top of it + an adapter for TC 4, while
trying to keep things fairly generic). Coyote 2 can use different
request/response objects.

I think the new HTTP stack is fast (but I don't have profiling data to back
this up at the moment). I'll do lots of profiling when the adapter for TC 4
is working.
It could be worthwhile to port JK 2 to Coyote (2 ?), since the TC 4 adapter
will likely be a lot faster than using the o.a.c.connector package. There's
obviously no hurry, as it's working fine already.
