+              We're changed the way we generate our reference documentation for the taglibs,

+                  Update error message for when value is null to specify the id of the bean being defined.
+              </li>
+              <li>
+                  Updated tag to filter value field to prevent it from breaking HTML if the value has reserved
+                  characters in it.
+              </li>
+              <li>
+                  Changed logic so that the "must specify only one of..." message only get's thrown if the user is
+                  specifying more than one of the available options.
+                  The code was throwing the message if the user didn't specify any at all and should be flowing
+                  down to the "no value specified" error message.
+                  Update "can contain only one of..." message to specify which bean has the error.
+              </li>
+              <li>
+                  Update FormTag to provide better debug message in the scenario where an action mapping is missing a
+                  form bean name.
+              </li>
+              <li>
+                 Update TagUtils to provide a more specific error message in the case where properties on a formbean
+                  are not found. Basically this change handles the scenario where the Constants.BEAN_KEY value was
+                  being displayed as the bean name.
+                  Now, the actualy bean name will be displayed.

+                  If an 'id' is already identified with the 'tyleId' attribute, an exception is thrown.
+             </li>
+              <li>
+                  Changed dynamic focus javascript to choose form using 'id' attribute in XHTML mode

+              <li>
+                  Changed the "action" attribute of the Form taglib to be optional.
+                  If omitted, the original URI of the request is used.
