jelly expression question

[Jamie McCrindle]

hi,

i'm using jelly in maven and i've come across a problem best illustrated by
this example:

  <goal name="teststuff">
        <j:set var="seven" value="7"/>
        <j:set var="eight" value="8"/>
        <echo>${seven &lt; eight}</echo>
        <echo>${seven == eight}</echo>
        <echo>${7 &lt; 8}</echo>
  </goal>

the output of which is:

teststuff:
    [echo]
    [echo] false
    [echo] true

i.e. ${seven &lt; eight} doesn't evaluate to anything, where i expected it
to evaluate to true.

regards,
jamie.
