Some more conservative shops intentionally lag behind on releases. The reasons range from "afraid to upgrade" to "don't feel the need to upgrade" or even "we've built a sizable architecture on an older rev and upgrading will be a monumental effort." : isn't tomcat 5 branch more bug free, featurefull : and backwards compatible? Yes and no. Even if the app used no features specific to Tomcat 4, you still have to rebuild the app to upgrade. -QM -- software -- http://www.brandxdev.net tech news -- http://www.RoarNetworX.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
