Hello Chris,

Having started my app with Tapestry 5.0 I don‘t have first hand experience with 
the previous versions of Tapestry. Telling from the activity on the mailing 
list, virtually nobody seems to be using Tapestry 3 or 4.

Since you are facing some work related with backward incompatibilities anyway, 
you may as well just jump to Tapestry 5.7. In my opinion, it is worth the 
effort: very useful out-of-the-box features, yet flexible and customizable. The 
docs are not world class but useful, and there is always help on the mailing 
list if you make an effort to ask a good question.

Cheers,

Volker
