The jakarta tags are really focussed on cfml-like or programming
functionality; tags like cache, dbtags, logs, mailer, scrape.

There's not really anything there (outside of the JSTL tags) that
are focussed on presentation.

We have a huge brand.  We have approx. 10 committers, and many active
contributors, but only a handful of classes.  The table tag is important
and large, and should continue to be the centerpiece of the library, but
there is no reason that we can't accomplish much more.  

My gut feeling is that although there is still much work to do on the 
table tag, the main bulk of the work is complete.  We don't need 10 
developers to just maintain one custom tag.  

Tabletag 2.0 may have some important differences. We might move the
text formatting code into independent tags, and issue a release that 
removes support for 1.0 deprecated features.

But, I think the project should have an explicit agreement on general 
direction before any tabletag 2.0 planning discussions begin.
