[jboss-dev] org.jboss.web.metamodel.descriptor package and executor service

[Rémy Maucherat]

Hi,

Two items:

(1) The org.jboss.web.metamodel.descriptor in the Tomcat package was
previously used, but has now been taken over by metadata. Can it be
removed ?

(2) Tomcat (and Jboss Web) have the capability to use the Executor
interface from the JDK for the threads it uses for request processing.
This means that it would be possible to have an Executor service in AS
which could provide a unique thread pool among all services which need
threads, thus possibly saving on the global amount of threads needed.
Is there interest in that ?
