I think we can merge both cluster and storeconfig modules to new tc

Only change is that new ha cluster module are packaged as seperate
jar (name change a build.xml) and we must change the bootstrap logic
at config parsing. I think user better switch cluster implementation
with system.properties as autodetect a class. Then testing
current and new cluster module are a lot easier.

Could you explain a bit ?

My understanding is that ha is an optional feature, that users can
turn on - i.e.
sort of a separate module, with no dependency between tomcat and ha.

For modules - I assumed that each of them is a JMX component, that can
be configured using only JMX calls. I.e. no system.properties or other change
to bootstrap logic.

If this is not the case - why and can we fix it ?

Re: moving the code to the src/ tree - I'm not very sure. I think it
was a clear benefit to
have all core tomcat components in the same tree - i.e. connectors,
jasper, catalina.
But I think it would also be good to have a separate 'modules' and
'webapps' area, and
keep them separate, at least for things that are not required for a
basic tomcat. Or at least for things that have external deps, or are
big.

Personally, all core modules are what is shipped in the default distribution (AFAIK, they have no dependencies). For example, for 5.5, the admin webapp is not a core module, but the old clustering is.

Similarly, it seems server.xml configuration has justifications for clustering. I don't see the point of using a mini JBoss architecture.
