Acknowledgments

Thanks to James Duncan Davidson and Sun Microsystems for giving us Tomcat in the first place. James worked above and beyond the call of duty to write it and to work out the details of how it could become open source software. Sun Microsystems supported his pioneering work and has strongly supported the evolution of Tomcat since its donation to the Apache Software Foundation.

A colossal thanks goes to Simon St.Laurent, editor of this Second Edition after Brett McLaughlin, for being patient with me beyond my expectations while I spent the necessary time digging deep to uncover and clearly document the answers throughout the book, and for showing continued confidence.

Another big thanks goes to Brett McLaughlin, who edited the First Edition and was the editor of this Second Edition in the early months of the project. Brett made innumerable minor suggestions to improve the book and several times talked us into reorganizing scattered material into the (hopefully) comprehensible form you see before you. Thanks Brett!

Paula Ferguson saw the First Edition of the book through the early stages, and then passed the torch to Brett McLaughlin. Thanks Paula!

Open source projects are just not the same without a vibrant community surrounding them, and we believe that Tomcat could not have gone so far so fast without the stewardship of the Apache Software Foundation and its members. Thanks, ASF, for your hard work, servers, and bandwidth.
