Since Tomcat is an open source project your best avenue for support is probably
through the mailing list.

My company, Signature Domains ( http://www.signaturedomains.com/ ) uses Tomcat 4 for
all of our servlet engine needs. I
also use it for other web sites of my own. Considering that Tomcat is the reference
implementation for Sun's Servlet
API I imagine there are MANY companies out there using it.

Apache doesn't have a "help" number as you are expecting it. You may want to look at
http://www.apache.org/foundation/faq.html to gain a better understanding of what
Apache is.
I hope I have answered your questions well. Please note that I am only giving you
information which is available on the
Apache and Jakarta web sites. I am not a representative of the Apache Software
Foundation, only a very satisfied user
of Apache products.
Sincerely,
Anthony Eden
