I've gotten to the point with my Struts-EL contribution that I'd like some
advice on how I can move forward with finalizing this.

I've finished the code for all the tags, except I have to put in any required
standard headers and add javadoc (and I'd like to know what is really needed
here, from a Jakarta policy point of view), although there's really not much to
the code that is novel at all.  With some work (including an extension or two
to the taglib XML descriptor), the code for the tags could be generated.  The
only tag where I've added (none removed) an attribute is the "logic-el:match"
tag, where I've added an "expr" attribute, to take an EL value, as opposed to
getting the value to compare from a cookie, header, bean property, or request
parameter.

I've finished converting all the original pages from the "exercise-taglib", and
I've added one other, and added a "Show Source" feature for all the tests.

I've built a set of Cactus unit tests, covering many of the tags, but there's
still quite a few which haven't been covered yet (the original Struts tests
hardly cover any).

I'm almost done with writing a README file that explains the purpose of the
library, and details some of the "porting decisions", which is a list of the
original Struts tags which I did NOT port to Struts-EL (because JSTL covers
their functionality).

My current work isn't in CVS, and is based on the 1.1-b2 code base.

I'd like to get this "out there" in the hands of people who can use it, and who
can help to evolve it forward.

Advice?  Help?  Direction?
