I opened the source, changed the ContextManager class and compiled a new version. I jar'ed the classes and replaced the webserver.jar file with my new one. Works great. My questions is...How do I get this change put into the process of being adopted into the general source tree? Is this change supposed to be somewhere else? If so, where?
