Thomas , You are right , maybe using Tomcat as an example was not really an appropiate example. Maybe I should have used Hibernate or Apache Derby as an example , but you already answered my question regarding wheter or not generics can afffect such products , wich its actually reassuring despise the lack of updates.

With my Tomcat committer hat on: No. Primarily because Tomcat doesn't have a dependency on collections and hasn't for some time. Tomcat does depend on other Commons libraries that have yet to be converted to generics (pool, dbcp) and it causes absolutely no problems whatsoever. Don't get me wrong, I am all for generics but please don't go parading Tomcat around as a reason to do so.
