In any case, the api should be <scope>provided</scope> unless *you are
building a servlet container*.

Given that the servlet and jsp api's are a standard, it should not matter
*which* one you choose. I tend to favour the geronimo spec jars though
figuring pout the exact one can be tricky and their version numbering is a
tad strange.

You really just need to know what servlet specification you are targeting
as the minimum that your application will run on and pull in any
corresponding API with scope=provided
