In JSTL 1.1 and JSP 2.0, the 'RT' (rtexprvalue) tag libraries will be used, thus allowing the container to process expressions. JSP 2.0 won't use expressions by default in applications that have a deployment descriptor created according to the JSP 1.2 standard's specifications. Thus, existing applications continue to work unmodified. New applications will use the JSTL 1.1 URIs to identify JSTL tag libraries. A JSP 2.0 container need not include a JSTL implementation, but it must include an EL interpreter.
