As for not including every concievable library and framework, thank goodness or else it would be huge. TC supports a huge array of frameworks. Many people dont use tags, some like Struts, others prefer a pure MVC model... etc etc.
Struts is not part of JSP 2.1 spec, but JSTL is. Therefore I don't understand why Tomcat 6 implements some JSP 2.1 features like standard JSP actions, and does not implement JSTL, which is PART OF JSP SPEC. It is not a biggie to add two jars to app lib directory, I am just curious why Tomcat 6 continues the strange practice of Tomcat 5, which also does not implement JSTL despite the fact that JSTL is part of JSP2.0 spec too. Tomcat is a reference implementation of SRV/JSP spec, while jstl.jar and standard.jar contain reference implementation of JSTL. Why these jars are not bundled with Tomcat is beyond me. In regards to JSF, I am dropping my question because I just realized that JSF is not part of JSP spec, these specs are just... um... "aligned". Thanks everybody for clearing things out with Tomcat 6 stability, I guess I will chose it for our new development and deployment. We still use Tomcat 4 for deployment.
