Agreed, but I don't think we're *that* rusty on the Struts tags yet that we
wouldn't be able to offer useful advice  :-).

Yes, I had a very ... ummm ... interesting off-list discussion recently
where I was trying to explain that to someone. I guess it's as much about
perception as anything. I don't want to give the impression that the Struts
tags are somehow unsupported or that JSTL is the *only* way to work. Also,
in many people's eyes Struts 1.1 was only just released so any perceived
change in the level support might be viewed negatively.

I'm very happy for JSTL to be the recommendation, provided the commitment to
the Struts tags until the end of their lifetime is clear and I feel sure it
will be.

That would certainly help dispel the "Struts only works with JSPs" myth. But
I believe the standard answer to questions is, "No! ???? is crap. You want
to use Perl" :-)
