I've just committed an early access version of a 'Taglib Directory' web
application to the jakarta-taglibs-sandbox. Its nothing terribly special yet
(I created it on the flight over to San Francisco for JavaOne so I haven't
spent too much time on it yet).
The idea being that eventually it will be a feature packed web application
demonstrating many of the jakarta-taglibs libraries in action, building a
useful web application, a directory of all existing tag libraries.
Ultimately this web-app can have all of those features Pierre mentioned some
time ago on this list including discussion groups, forums and so on.
Right now its a fairly simple web app using the following taglibs
XTags
i18n
io
log
I'd like it to use many of the other taglibs too over time (especially
DBTags and maybe Scott's new JTags or mailer, benchmark and so on).
The current version allows the browsing of a number of hand-configured
taglibs (all the ones in the jakarta-taglibs project that use Scott's
taglib-doc-kit and have a single 'TagML' XML document describing the taglib
and all its tags). From selecting a taglib you can browse to the taglib
detail view and overview documentation together with a detailed view of each
tag.
You can browse the jakarta-taglibs-sandbox here:-

The "Taglib Directory" web app is here:-

Any comments or suggestions are welcome - I'll be improving it as and when I
can.
