Because packages are required by the spec. Quoting from JSP.11.2: "As of JSP 2.0, it is illegal to refer to any classes from the unnamed (a.k.a. default) package. This may result in a translation error on some containers, specifically those that run in a JDK 1.4 or greater environment. It is unfortunate, but unavoidable, that this will break compatibility with some older JSP applications. However, as of JDK 1.4, importing classes from the unnamed package is not valid (see http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/compatibility.html#source for details). Therefore, for forwards compatibility, applications must not rely on the unnamed package." - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
