Not Jakarta, but Apache. Jakarta is a subproject.
And it's no rumor....

You should only need to "litter" the layout file(s) that you need. I usually get away with 1 or 2. In the projects that I have any control over, linking directly to a JSP is unacceptable. If Tiles doesn't cut the mustard, use SiteMesh, or if you need both, use it in combination with Tiles.

Subject: Tiles and Facades
I read a rumor that said Tiles will become its own top-level subproject in Jakarta. Is that true?
Also, I think Tiles is great, but I find it very annoying to litter every
JSP page with <tiles> tags to decorate my pages. While it makes sense to put
the tile definitions in XML when I do Struts development, sometimes JSP
needs to be accessed directly. Is there (or will be) any mechanism (like a
filter) to can automatically decorate JSP (ala SiteMesh)?
Thanks, Paul
