i agree with craig (but then, i find that i usually do).since this change will mean quite a bit of work and will introduce a new

i'm +1.
Ideas for how to handle dependencies better at Jakarta Commons would be good. String Taglib is dependent on Lang and the number one problem users have is not having commons-lang in their classpath.
it's important to have our releases available independently but that's no reason not to also offer in addition jar's containing all dependencies.
so, i'd like to be able to offer a jar containing the latest versions of all the commons goodies (but i've never been able to get the combo project to run).
i also think that the String Taglib should consider offering a ready-to-run release which contained the commons-lang classes as well as an minimal release containing just the taglib code.
