I must disagree with you. There has been previous talks about 'wasting resources', that looks just like some corporate manager would talk. You can not stop people seeking other solutions, trying to build something better. It's the compete opposition of what IMO ASF stands for. If I make a design flaw, and the entire project gets unusable, it will make it just something like mod_java, mod_warp, mod_jk and mod_jk2 are... Dead.

Are we going to need to have a full set of requirements and marketing analysis for each patch we make? Thing you've gone too far :( Regards, MT.
