Hey Thomas,

JSTL is a new Java standard. JSR, JCP all that official jazz. The
reference implementation [or one of two] is hosted at Jakarta Taglibs and
called 'standard'. [Shawn was the implementation lead]

It's JSP 1.2 however. It does deprecate many of the Jakarta Taglibs
somewhat in functionality [though isn't always a complete replacement],
however those taglibs are kept around for their JSP 1.1 support.

Improving the documentation on each 'deprecated' 1.1 taglib to mention the
JSTL is probably a good idea. Will see if I can push such a thing along.
