Heh, well, if I didn't want to help anyone, I wouldn't subscribe to a
help list!  ;-)  It annoys me when I ask a question on a help list, and
people just sit there and spend great effort to insult me for asking a
question which they know the answer to, or are not honest with
themselves and do not acknowledge flaws in their code, design or
documentation.  So I try to treat people the way I would like to be
treated.  Some people find truth and honesty offensive.  I ask people on
other lists, if they don't want to help, why did they subscribe to a
help list, if the questions aggravate them, that is not very helpful to
anyone.  ;-)

Maybe by end of day today I'll have Tomcat and Jetty working... ohh and
some JVM.  What JVM are you using?  Sun?  IBM?  Kaffe?  Other?  First
time with Tomcat and Jetty, and haven't used Java in Linux in about 5
years.  Need to recompile my Apache, PHP and MySQL anyways, so what's a
few more components?  ;-)  Maybe by then I'll better understand things.
My Java is rusty, but I should be able to understand enough to relearn
from example code.

Raymond did the original IOElement and SODA code, with the ASP JScript
and VBScript server-side libraries and examples.  I did a partial
translation to PHP, and barely began the Perl.  I think Andrew did the
Java, but I may be wrong.
