Thanks for the clarification Jeff (and pursuing the vote). Based upon
the most recent discussion on the jspc item I wasn't sure if you and
others were confortable with the fix. It certainly works for me! :-)

2) JSP compilation errors
Problem:
Embedded error: Unable to compile class for JSP
Strange error message about JAVA_HOME, etc...
Possible Solution/Work-around:
Update the pom.xml in the root directory to use version 1.4.5-SNAPSHOT
(from 1.4.4) for the jspc-maven-plugin. Not sure if Jeff Genender is
planning to make 1.4.5 an official release for this. We're not sure why
it gets us around the problem so it may be a red herring.
Its not a red herring. It gets you around the problem because in 1.4.5
I actually hunt down the tools.jar file...in a similar fashion as done
in Ant when running the jspc complier from there. i.e.:
<taskdef classname="org.apache.jasper.JspC" name="jasper2" >
<classpath>
<pathelement location="${java.home}/../lib/tools.jar"/>
...
I have to duplicate that in code. That's why 1.4.5 works.
The release is under vote. So far no -1s. I think I will be able to
release it today as the 72 hours is up. I'll let this list know when I
have released it.
Jeff
