I realize that this happened a long time ago and that the number 100
is just an arbitrary line in the sand, but this is the highest release
number any version of Tomcat has ever gotten.

- From past releases:

Major   Highest Patch Version   7.0 Surpasses
6.0     .53                     2014-05-22 (~4 years)
5.5     .36                     2013-02-18 (~2.5 years)
5.0     .30                     2012-10-09 (~2 years)
4.1     .40                     2013-06-10 (~3 years)
4.0     .06                     2011-02-05 (~.5 years)

I see this as a very encouraging non-milestone: Tomcat 7.0 was
initially released back in June of 2010, and it has continued to get
fixes and updates nearly 10 years after initial release. I think
that's a great story.

Tomcat 6.0 had a similar story, with 6.0.10[1] being the first stable
version released on 2007-02-28 and final release on 2017-04-07 --
which I recall was a release done months after the official EOL for
Tomcat 6.0 due to a particularly bad security issue.

If indeed Tomcat 7.0.10 was the first stable version, released
2011-01-14, then we only have 14 months to surpass the lifetime of
that venerable version of Tomcat.
