Introduction
============
-The JAKARTA-TAGLIBS project is a repository of JSP 1.1 custom tag libraries
-that have been contributed by developers to the Jakarta project, under the
-Apache Software Foundation license. Its purpose is to provide examples of
-tag library creation and use, as well as completed tag libraries that can be
-utilized in web applications.
-
-Developers interested in creating new tag libraries, or updating existing ones,
-should subscribe to the TAGLIBS-DEV mailing list at the Jakarta web site
-<http://jakarta.apache.org>. Likewise, users of the contributed tag libraries
-should subscribe to the TAGLIBS-USER mailing list for asking and answering
-questions about the use of the various libraries.
