I did an EL version of .8.5 and it wasn't easy. It took a lot of hacking of the table tag itself to get it all working, but it does work. Most of the trouble came about because I didn't want to break compatibility with the 'regular' version, so I subclassed and overrid most of the features, so it ended up uglier than it really needed to.

I haven't looked at the new version/source so it might be a little easier this with the new code base. I'll probably do this soon anyway (look at the new code base), and I'll probably do an EL version as well.

The only addiction is the scope prefix, like in jstl: without the prefix
everything works like in the previous version and you can use the
separate "scope" attribute...

I'd also liked to move to jstl since commons-el has been released, but I
didn't want to totally break compatibility...

I wasn't aware that the 0.8 version used these expressions? If it did, then I suppose there's no harm in releasing it, although I'd still vote to refactor with commons-el in the near future.
