Probably because a lot of time elapses between proposal and bookstore. 
In fact, a lot of time elapses between final manuscript and bookstore. 
Publishing (especially technical stuff) is not a speedy process, and by 
the time that book hits the streets Tomcat 4 will be production and 
Tomcat 3.x will be legacy code.

I don't have the true inside scoop, but that would be my guess.
