Hi, Anissa,

Yes, I'm well aware of this, but I don't know where to find this
information. When I asked at the admin team meeting some weeks ago, you
said the best place to find it was in the DTD -- but the links to the
DTD from the Grizzly Config one-pager
(http://wiki.glassfish.java.net/Wiki.jsp?page=GrizzlyConfigOnePager)
have been broken for some time, and both June Parks and I have been
asking for them, but we've had no response.

Again, please point me to the information and I'll put it in. If a
network listener is the same as an HTTP listener, I can copy that info,
but I need some assurance that that is the case, such as a spec or other
source.

I should warn you that significant feature changes that arrive in the
GUI the day of hard code freeze are unlikely to make it into the OLH,
which has to freeze the same day. I was able to work on Saturday, but
not on Sunday.

That's a new one. I will try to reproduce it.

Okay -- I was just going by what happened in the GUI at the time.

?? I'll look for it.
