Stuart Robertson commented on EL-5: ----------------------------------- Thanks guys. We'll give the patch a try. We're also looking into replacing our useage of commons el with the builtin implementation in Websphere 6.0. That should be a vanilla impl of the spec from JSP 2.0, presumably actively maintained. We're hoping that ends up being more scalable.
