You're right, *I* really want Tomcat 6, but my employers are leery of
its beta status.  They are also concerned about supporting an additional
container.

I didn't explain myself clearly, I'd prefer to use Shale in either case.
My problem is that I may be stuck in Tomcat 5.5.17, which (for me) would
necessitate using JSF 1.1.  

I need to decide if yesterday's setup is good enough, or if it's worth
pushing my employers really hard to add a Tomcat 6 setup (and risk being
thrown out on my rear).
