I'm not a developer. I have an application that was written to function on 5.5.17. I need to upgrade the application to 6.x due to vulnerabilities in 5.x.

I noticed on the website 5.5.x supports Servlet/JSP Spec 2.4/2.0. While 6.x supports 2.5/2.1.

My question is what is the likelihood the the code would work on 6.x? Is 2.5/2.1 known to be backwards compatible iwth 2.4/2.0 or is it a completely different animail?
