I actually still have some cause to build applications pre 2.0 so I'd
like to retain pre-support if possible... cf. I get a bit frustrated by
Java projects that are compiled 1.5 when they could be compiled pre-1.5
compatible.

I think that adds another axis of complexity (since at some point
we'll want to have a 2.0 worthy release to stay reasonably current).
However, if there are still volunteers for a pre 2.0 distro, so be it.

Isn't every tag library EL-enabled in 2.0 as long as it has rtexpr
allowed? By EL-enabled do you mean similar to the EL / RT flavour tab
libraries that JSTL has (had?)? I would be in favour of that approach,
except perhaps it isn't necessary if most people are going to be 2.0+
and no need it, and those of us still deploying pre-2.0 never had EL
support in the tag libaries anyway...

cheers,
Karl
