It's not re-architecting tomcat - AFAIK 5.0 is just a normal evolution of the existing architecture(s). Coyote is already used, and we should try to make sure most of the code that works today with either 3.3 or 4.0 will work with 5.0. The only change in Coyote that is needed is in the Action area, to better support this. > > while at the same time adding support for the new Servlet > > API 2.4 and JSP 2.0 specifications > > > > Reservation #1: There is a new architecture being proposed, > but since the 2.4 API isn't out yet, all the requirements aren't > available.
