As a published requirement, Struts 2 requires Servlet 2.4.  However,
I'd bet you could run a Struts 2 app on Servlet 2.3, if you were
careful and did plenty of testing.  You might run into a few problems
in some of the JSP tags or perhaps interceptors, but as a whole,
Struts 2 tries to stay away from the servlet api wherever possible.

If you decide to go with Struts 2 on Servlet 2.3 and get it working,
please let us know and better yet, write a wiki doc describing your
approach and potential pitfalls. :)

OK for JEE version, but none of my customer server is servlet 2.4 compliant
(all are servlet 2.3, and sometime java 1.3 !).

Is servlet 2.4 dependency required for all features ? Can I run a
Struts 2.0webapp with some limitations on tomcat
4.1 : Mailreader 2.0.1 runs fine under my tomcat 4.1.30
