Preface

This is the Changelog for Tomcat 5.5.x. For changes in Tomcat version 5.0.x, which preceded version 5.5.0, please see The Tomcat 5.0.x Changelog. As maintenance releases are cut on the 5.0.x branch, most fixes will be ported into a 5.5.x release and noted both here and in the above Changelog. However, bugs fixed in Tomcat 5.0.28 and earlier are noted only in the above changelog.
