Tomcat 6 is just around the corner, but is pretty easy to build from
SVN, three steps,
1. svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tomcat/tc6.0.x/trunk/ trunk
2. cd trunk
3. ant download
4. ant
It generates all the libraries that you'll need, more answers inline

JSTL 1.2 is dependent upon a JSP 2.1 web container (this is no great

implementation is dependent upon a JSP 2.1 implementation and a 2.1 EL
implementation as well.
So, I'm wondering where we will pick up the JSP support for the
various containers.
it should come with the container itself. Tomcat 6 will ship with it.
We are also hoping to publish the individual JARs to the ASF maven repo,
so that they can be utilized independently.
I've seen it mentioned someplace that Jetty 6 would pick up the
Glassfish JSP 2.1 implementation. Is this true? I just downloaded
Jetty 6.0.1 and it seems that the JSP2.1 jar in lib does include
com.sun classes. However, if look under modules/jsp-2.1 there are
apache jasper items there (which I presume are from jakarta).
Jan/Greg ... could one of you clarify this? If it is Glassfish then I
presume there should be no issue with using the Glassfish JSTL library
with Jetty6 ... do you agree?
I'm having a more difficult time finding information for Tomcat 6.x.
There's no download yet and the documentation for tomcat 6.x seems
like it's still a 5.x version of the doc with just 6.x headers. It
still references servlet 2.4 and JSP 2.0 (via Jakarta) rather than
servlet 2.5 and JSP 2.1. Does anybody (Jeff?) know if Tomcat is
planning to pick up the Glassfish JSP 2.1 impl as well or is there
going to be a new Jakarta Jasper implementation?
Tomcat doesn't pick it up from Glassfish, it sits in the Tomcat source tree.
