What I am working on is not a repackaging, it is a completely
new taglib. It will have support for all the things you can do
with the request, response, page, etc. tag libs. But it is
a great deal more than that. Its more of a JSP tag library
framework, I think of it as 'struts on steroids'. It is designed
to address many of the issues we discussed on this list 4-5 weeks
ago.
I have been busy the last few weeks working on adding support
to Tomcat 4 for the Java SecurityManager and rewriting how
Jasper loads classes and compiled JSP pages. I should have
this finished sometime this weekend so I can get back to work on
the new taglib next week.
I will import it into CVS once the core design is fully implemented
and working. That could be another 2-4 weeks.
Regards,
Glenn
