Andreas: I have a list of “small changes” we've done to Lift to make it better fit our needs. It's mainly configuration-stuff which lets you specify where “/lift” is (as a function), more configurable CometActors (wrt. initialization), bump to scala-xml:2.1.0 (and necessary changes to Html5Parser.parse).

Research direction

Start with the linked Google Groups discussion to understand the proposed small changes. Then locate Lift's configuration for the /lift path, CometActor initialization, and Html5Parser.parse, along with the scala-xml dependency. Done means the listed configuration and initialization enhancements are implemented and the scala-xml 2.1.0 upgrade works with the parser changes.
