Dear Apache Commons Team, I hope this message finds you well.
I am currently working on updating a Java project from Java 8 to Java 17. The project makes extensive use of the commons-el library. However, I have noticed that commons-el is no longer actively maintained, with the last update being published in February 2013. While researching alternatives, I came across Apache Commons JEXL. However, I noted from the documentation that JEXL is not a compatible implementation of the EL as defined in JSTL 1.1 (JSR-052) or JSP 2.0 (JSR-152) specifications. Since my project requires compatibility with these specifications, I am seeking guidance on the following: * Is there a recommended alternative within the Apache Commons family or any other library that offers similar functionality to commons-el and supports Java 17? * Are there any migration guides or best practices for transitioning from commons-el to a more modern and supported library? Thank you for your time and assistance. I appreciate any guidance you can provide. Thanks, Anitha
