This document attempts to convey the current status of Tomcat development
in "big picture" terms. This is not the place to check if an individual
bug report has been addressed or when an individual feature will be available.
</p>
<p>
This page is updated roughly once per every couple of Tomcat minor releases,
so for day-to-day status you should check the tomcat-user and tomcat-dev mailing
lists. You can always inquire there as to the availability or status of a
specific feature or component.

<p>
<b>Tomcat 5.0.27</b> was released on June 17th, 2004. At that time, the TOMCAT_5_0
branch was tagged in CVS, and work on Tomcat 5.5 began. We have now had several
Tomcat 5.5 releases, including a couple of stable ones. Accordingly, Tomcat 5.5
is now the focus on work. Tomcat 5.0 is in maintenance mode and its releases
will become less and less frequent.
</p>
<p>
<b>Tomcat 5.5</b> has several major goals. They are discussed in the tomcat-dev
mailing list's "5.next" thread:
<a href="http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=tomcat-dev&w=2&r=1&s=5.next&q=b">MARC</a>.
The status of some of these items is detailed below. Once 5.5 releases are
available, please refer to the Changelog accompanying each release for detailed
changes, enhancements, and fixes.
</p>
<p>
<b>Tomcat 4.1.x</b> is no longer actively developed. It is maintained to address
only showstopper, security, and Servlet Specification compliance issues. Maintenance
for Tomcat 4.1.x will likely cease once a stable release or two of Tomcat 5.5 are out.
Users of Tomcat 4.1.x are strongly encouraged to upgrade to the latest stable Tomcat
5.0 release.
</p>
<p>
<b>Tomcat 4.0.x</b> is relatively old, and not actively maintained or supported.
It is strongly recommended that users of these releases upgrade to the latest
stable Tomcat 5.0 release or at least the latest stable Tomcat 4.1 release.
</p>
<p>
<b>Tomcat 3.3.x</b> is in roughly the same maintenance mode as Tomcat 4.1.x.
</p>
<p>
<b>Tomcat 3.2</b> and earlier are in roughly the same support state as Tomcat 4.0.x.
Users should upgrade to Tomcat 3.3.x or the latest stable Tomcat 5.0.x.
</p>

<p>
The columns in this report contain the following information:
<ul>
<li><b>Priority</b> - A sense of how important it is to address this
issue in the short term.</li>
<li><b>Action Item</b> - Concise description of the action item
to be completed. Where relevant, Java package names of the
primary classes involved are listed in [square brackets]</li>
<li><b>Volunteers</b> - Login of those developers who
have volunteered to assist in the design, implementation, testing, and
documentation of this action item's changes to Tomcat.</li>
</ul>
Developers can nominate
themselves to work on particular action items by asking a Committer to
add their name address to those items. The developers
working on each item should discuss and agree upon the approach to be
used for implementing the item's changes to the project source code
and documentation, prior to completing those changes. Such discussions
should take place on the tomcat-dev mailing list so that everyone can
stay apprised of what is going on, or chime in if they want to
contribute ideas and suggestions.
