Thanks so much for fixing this and the quick turn around.

A couple of things I've noticed others discussing and I would love to
see them get put into jersey are:
A convenient way to get the form parameters from a filter.
A convenient way to fill a pojo from the form parameters and request
parameters.

Maybe I'm just out dated on these items.

Thanks again,
Craig




This is fixed in the latest snapshot.
