Is this an issue? Servlet 2.5 is 11 years old now (more than Java 6 even), that's some serious backward compatbilty.

We use several Servlet 3.0 features (annotation servlets and websockets being the main ones), so trying to compile with Servlet 2.5 would be challenging...

That is all well and good to embrace the required level of standards to make use of more advanced featured. However, I was hoping that we could keep the core components at a lowest common denominator level.
From a purely selfish viewpoint, our product framework is still based on Jetty v7 which does not yet have servlet 3.0 support. I’m sure I don’t need to tell you what a hassle it is to get “product management” to schedule any sort of technology uplift…
