If the developers would admit there are problems, fix them, and move on, Tomcat's quality would benefit, the developers who use it would benefit, and the world would be a better place. <rant> Instead we are stuck with this -"Works as designed" -"That may be a problem but only affects a small number of use cases" _bullshit_ mentality from the powers that be, and i have encountered it on every single bug I've submitted or encountered and commented on. Furthermore I am ready and willing to submit patches, and have done so, but they just go to the bit bucket in the sky, with no comments, criticism. Just crickets chirping. @see http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39088 @see http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33453 </rant> -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
