I thought changes were going into trunk and then when applicable, backported to 6.0.x.

While I initiated the creation of the trunk branch, I can no longer work with Filip since I disagree with him on API design, and I don't like his ideas on collaboration. As a result, I do not wish to participate in trunk development, and I have to do my development activities elsewhere :(
it's community development, you can participate or not. That's your call.
You've threatened to start other branches elsewhere, you've threatened to leave, you can keep threatening, if the community is strong enough it will survive. If it is not, then it will fall, just like Rome did.

No, trunk is Filip's development, and that's it. I've been working elsewhere since I had no other choice, and I regret there is no way to collaborate. ASF projects cannot go anywhere if two parties are in constant opposition, so basically one of us needs to go away for the project to move forward.

I now think removing the trunk branch or moving it to the sandbox would be best.
I'm gonna propose for trunk to stay, we specifically made that cause you decided changes the Geronimo team needed were not appropriate.
And there are other changes that have gone in there since then.

Maybe switching to a tigher patch inclusion process like what is done in httpd, and reboot trunk, could be a solution. As you may have noticed, I disagreed with all your Comet related commits, and you never cared in any way. This would have avoided the initial divide.

Unless I missed something, the patch which Geronimo needs is API incompatible with Tomcat 6.0.x, and external projects are already using the said API for integration with Tomcat, so I don't see a way to do it. Let me know if I missed something.

Since this change is only writing warning messages. It seems appropriate that it can remain in 6.0.x.

Yes, it should only display warnings, but if we display bad warnings in a stable release, we'll get zillions of angry users.
right up your ally ;)

Huh ?

So it's important to get it right. I committed this in the 6.0.x branch since I don't have any other sensible place to commit it.

it not backwards compatible, that's why 6.0 would be inappropriate for such a change

Feel free to veto the patch and then revert it if you think it's inappropriate.
