Hi,

Is there any particular incompatibility that concerns you? I have been using the same 
apps basically from an early version of 4 with no changes required to upgrade other 
than small changes to web.xml etc to fall in line with the newer servlet specs which 
tomcat has to follow and is not in the Tomcat developers control.

If you are concerned then you don't need to upgrade, there are many people on this 
list still running versions 3 or 4 of tomcat. In fact, unless you  are affected by 
bugs that are subsequently fixed or require the new features or more performance there 
isnt really a good arguement to upgrade.

Matt

Subject: Tomcat development rate.


Since I've been watching Tomcat, it has been rapidly changing
version, with some incompatibility.

Are there any plans to stabilise and perhaps even
consider backwards compatibility?

Am I the only one looking at deployment concerns 
over a fast moving target?


Regards DaveP.
