Tomcat 3 is servlet spec 2.2
Tomcat 4 is servlet spec 2.3
Tomcat 5 will be servlet spec 2.4

Other than that, look at the Tomcat docs for all the parts that make up Tomcat. Or I found this site the other day that makes a start at getting into Tomcat internals: http://www.brainysoftware.com/

They have 8 chapters for free download. 'How Tomcat works'.
