Tim Donohue updated DS-618:
---------------------------
Description:
We still recommend at least "PostgreSQL 7.3 or 7.4". 7.4 is now seven years
old and losing maintainer support next month (or so). By December only 8.2 and
up will be supported.
Sun Java 5 SE reaches its End Of Service Life in October 2010.
Tomcat 4 is positively ancient and definitely unsupported by its maintainers.
Even 5.0 is too old for help. 5.5 should be our minimum recommendation.
Please discuss.

Maven 2.2 is current and the developers are intensely focused on 3.0. We might
recommend at least 2.0.11 (the current "older release") rather than 2.0.8.
Tomcat 4 is positively ancient and definitely unsupported by its maintainers.
Even 5.0 is too old for help. 5.5 should be our minimum recommendation.

+1 to bringing these all up to date. (SideNote: Removed the Maven versions
from original description on behalf of Mark Wood).
I'd be in favor of making this on ongoing task. Before any major release we
should review version requirements and update them to recommend versions which
are still being supported. We shouldn't be encouraging the community to
continue to run old unsupported versions of any software. :)
