The Tomcat 4.1.x family *is* the most recent stable branch for Tomcat 4
(which implements Servlet 2.3 and JSP 1.2).  Tomcat 4.1 releases use the
same version numbering scheme that the Apache web server does -- 4.1.x
release milestones are created periodically, and are then voted on for
quality (alpha, beta, or general release).  Tomcat 4.1.12 was the first
4.1 release that was voted as stable for general use.  Recently (last
week), Tomcat 4.1.17 also earned that vote of confidence, so it is the
most recent stable release.

Tomcat 4.0.x is in maintenance mode only.
