Recently I've received emails from this list with the following subjects:

Apache Tomcat 9.0.117 available

Apache Tomcat 10.1.54 Available

Apache Tomcat 11.0.21 Available

I'm mildly confused. Most packages I use have a current, maintained release, period. Is Apache Tomcat running 3 parallel releases? It seems 9, 10 and 11 are all getting periodic updates.

If Apache Tomcat is maintaining 3 parallel releases, why?
