Cool--thanks for supporting OpenBD with CFTracker!

At this point I'd suggest targeting 2.0 or newer. Depending on what you're
doing older versions may be fine but < 2.0 is pretty old (in our release
cycles, anyway!) at this point.

I'd say it's probably mostly Tomcat, next would be Jetty, and I doubt very
many people at all are using Resin.

it's probably a pretty even split between Linux and Windows.

As for upgrade frequency that's probably a mixed bag too--I have apps that
once they went into production on even OpenBD 1.2 if there's no reason to
touch them I don't, but we do whole enchilada deployments on Tomcat,
meaning app and OpenBD are a single unit that's version controlled, so we
tend to upgrade OpenBD as part of an app only when we're doing new
development on the application.

Hope that helps!
