Re: [jetty-users] jetty-rewrite.xml: RewriteRule clobbers requestURI

[Michael Dykman <mdykman@xxxxxxxxx>]

I can upgrade at need.  I was hoping to stick with the distro
integrated with Ubuntu 14.04 in order to simplify management.  As it
happens, I was able to solve that particular issue with a hybrid shim
(a little Java, a little PHP) and the system is, on the whole,
behaving as expected.
