The ID change stuff is trivial.
Yea. I read the EL 3.0 specification last night. The lambda expressions and LINQ support are pretty cool, but I can definitely see how that's going to be a LOT of work... Agreed that the ID change stuff is trivial. I was thinking about writing the change myself and submitting it to the list. I looked through the "Get Involved" section of the website and found info about submitting patches, code formatting, tools to use, etc. However, there's not a whole lot of info on "working on the next specification." If someone has the time to indulge me, I had a couple questions, like: 1) Where do y'all get the javax.* code that's in your repository? Do you write it from scratch based on the spec, or do you download it from somewhere? It's obviously not consistent with the classes in the javax.servlet:javax.servlet-api:3.1-b05 Maven artifact, but I don't know what's involved in updating that. 2) Where do y'all get the XSD files in http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/trunk/java/javax/servlet/resources/ and what's involved in adding new ones / updating? I noticed the Servlet 3.1 XSDs have not been added yet (which was surprising to me, since the deployment descriptor in my web app using web-app_3_1.xsd works). Don't know if just nobody has gotten around to it yet, or if there's a specific reason they're not there yet (Do you always wait until the spec is final? Do you put beta XSDs in there during development and update when the spec goes final?). There are 3.1 XSDs at http://java.net/nonav/projects/glassfish/sources/svn/show/trunk/main/appserver/deployment/schemas/src/main/resources/glassfish/lib/schemas, but that's just a guess.
