I'm really not keen on mixing version numbers and suffixes (like '-devel',
'-old') etc.. etc..

Assuming I'm reading the site right, there are 3 things on the go right now:

    4.x     currently jakarta-tomcat4 (will stall out at 4.x.* x<1)
    4.1.x   the refactoring project, what you're looking for here
    5.x     highly developmental.

Seems to me that jakarta-tomcat41 might be more appropriate (especially
given the existence of jakarta-tomcat3), and that -devel be reserved for
tracking snaps (or whatever) of currently-what-will-be-5.x, if such a port
were to exist.
