RE: Interesting Bug Fact

[David Graham]

It is a fact.  You can do the math yourself to verify.  Tomcat pooling did 
not break the tags; the tags were always in violation of the JSP spec.  I 
did not point this out to imply that the tags were not important, only to 
show that they make up a huge amount of our effort and the difficulty of 
writing fully compliant tags.

It would benefit Struts to move the tags to a separate distro (there should 
probably still be an all-in-one distro too).

I would like to add an observation to this 'fact'.  The tags have taken
a huge hit due to the complexity tomcat added with 'pooled' tags.  The
pooling broke all the tags resulting in a high level of bug reporting.
IMO it highlights the importance of the tag library to struts, at least
until JSF is ready for prime time.
