1.5.x ships with tomcat and is used by lots of other production
applications. We need to maintain the ability to patch it.
Tomcat 5.5 (the oldest stable version i can find) uses Java 5:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/setup.html
Tomcat 5.5 supports using it with Java 1.4.2 (e.g. the page you
referenced says "If using a J2SE 1.4 JRE, the compatibility package must
be downloaded and expanded inside the folder where Tomcat was installed.").
Minimum Java versions are:
TC 5.5: 1.4.2
TC 6: 1.5.0
TC 7: 1.6.0

This proposed release is binary compatible - they should not have any
issue to upgrade, right?
How long would you like to maintain the elder 1.5.x code without java 5 support?
