I've had success with WebLogic 5.1 sp5 using MVC and custom 
tags, no internationalisation or templates; I can't advise regarding 
sp6.

There were a few problems:

o WAR file had to be unpacked so WebLogic could find files other 
than classes in the classes directory.
o ActionServlet was not automatically started even though this was 
specified in the web.xml. This did not matter to us, the 
ActionServlet loaded fine on the first request to it.

However I suggest you don't take anyone's word for it: carry out a 
Proof of Concept, as we did, using the features which you are 
depending on.
