This is only slightly related to Tomcat, in that Servlet 3.1 / JSP 2.3 work is happening in trunk/8.0. Hence the "OT."
I was looking through the JSRs for EE 7 last night and realized I couldn't find anything about JSP 2.3 in any of them. I know JSP 2.3 exists because of Mark Thomas's presentation (http://people.apache.org/~markt/presentations/2012-10-Apache-Tomcat8-preview.pdf). But I cannot find a JSR for it. Is it part of JSR 340 (the Servlet 3.1 specification), or is there a JSR I haven't found yet, or has no JSR been created yet? Also, I figured since I couldn't find any information about it on Oracle's site or the JCP site that it must not be very far along, and yet here it is, on the Maven central repository (uploaded January 12, 2013), without any indication in the version that it's beta or milestone or anything of the sort: http://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Cjavax.servlet.jsp%7Cjavax.servlet.jsp-api%7C2.3.0%7Cjar Does anybody know the answer to this?
