the urls in the release documents should now redirect to jakarta.apache.org/site/binindex.cgi so hopefully the user should be able to find the release from there.

Hi Robert,
I'm not a tomcat developer, but I saw your message on the tomcat-dev archive
page.
I know of another reason why so many people are downloading 4.1.24 instead of 4.1.27.
The README on the webpage
(http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/README.txt) is a little
confusing, but it suggests that we look in
http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0 for updates. If you look
under there, the latest version is 4.1.24.
In fact, http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/index.html makes no
reference to the correct download location. I glossed over the link at
There are numerous other links telling folks to go to http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-tomcat-4.0 instead of the correct download location.
I opened a bug to track this: http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22823
As a new user to Tomcat, I found this a little confusing.
Thanks for all your hard work, I've been an Apache HTTP user for 4 years,
and am very excited in having an opportunity to work with Tomcat here. A few
of us are pushing hard. Next, Struts!
