Ok, I've found jstl on the java.net repo at this location:
https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/repository/jstl/
Are there any issues with downloading items from java.net?
Unfortunately it's substantially larger that what we had with JSTL 1.1
and it appears that the reason is it includes a whole lot more stuff
(strangely most of it under an org\apache\... path).
THe other strange thing is that this jstl jar doesn't match the content
of the one included with the full Glassfish download (which is a good
thing since the jar in the full image only seems to include the extra
gorp and not the classes that we need from the spec).

Yes, we could look at implementing our own or building on the 1.1
Jakarta impl. I'm a little hesitant to do that given that the Jakarta
folks themselves have considered this and apparently decided not to
pursue that path. I figure they know more about this than I do.
However, using Glassfish may not be that simple either. So far I
haven't seen the Glassfish published JSTL in any public repo. I also
haven't found a way to download just the JSTL impl from Glassfish apart
from downloading the entire image.
Still investigating ....

Here's another option. Depending on how much the spec has changed
between 1.1 and 1.2, we could fork jakarta and provide our own
implementation. Just a thought.
Then again, what are the pros and cons of picking up Glassfish ?

Does anyone know of an alternative to Glassfish's JSTL 1.2? Also, I
wonder if Jakarta might consider providing an implementation if we
expressed interest in using it in Geronimo?
