What's your connection to Apache Foundation

None what's so ever. The Tomcat widget is licensed under version 2.0 of the Apache License but that is a personal choice and is not related to them in anyway.

Why do I have to remove the security constraint

As of version 1.0 you don't have to. Orginally I had the problem that using XmlHttpRequest against an authenicated website was simply broken. I've managed to work around the problem using the /usr/bin/curl command that comes with Mac OSX.

From version 1.1 a improved version of the AltHttpRequest.js library has been developed, this finally doesn't require the use of curl to process authenicated http requests.
