Very well, but please keep in mind that from a 'will jspwiki ship with
etch' point of view (and also, not by accident, 'what is most important
to users' point of view), jspwiki needs to work with tomcat5 at least
(to be useful for new installs and upgrades of people to tomcat5).
Maintaining compatibility with tomcat4 is, in contrast, not a
prerequisite for the package being shipped with etch.
