Glen Mazza commented on JSPWIKI-796:
------------------------------------
Dirk, that you were using Tomcat 5 is quite pertinent information you should
have stated in this bug report. I upped us a few months back to Servlet 2.5
(Tomcat 6) and removed the Tomcat 5 crud in our old Ant build.xml. The
"JSPWiki site" you referenced is not the official source of information for the
Apache JSPWiki project, it was largely last updated in 2007 and we have no
control over its text--while Janne may opt to give some JSPWiki team members
write access to it (I don't have it, although I haven't asked) write access to
that site is not an automatic function of being a JSPWiki team member, and so
it remains unofficial until it's moved over to Apache and all team members can
update it.
Tomcat 5 is dead and unsupported, even by the Tomcat team -- it's not even on
their website today: http://tomcat.apache.org/. As it's unsupported, you
cannot base a secure solution on it today. Minimum is Tomcat 6.
More importantly, we cannot attract committers when we tell them they have to
work with obsolete products like Tomcat 5, we can, should and will lose them
instead to other projects that allow them to develop modern skills they can use
in their careers. It's difficult enough trying to compete with the Hadoops and
Cloudstacks for committers without us further requiring volunteers to work with
Tomcat 5. For the open source model to work, *both* the volunteer developers
and the users have to benefit, and committers just don't benefit working with
that product today. If you disagree, feel free to move the discussion over to
the dev list.
