    Description

      We noticed that the core pom still relies on JSTL 1.1.2, which was released in 2004. There has been a maintenance release to 1.2 in 2009, which should be used instead, as it aligns with the Unified Expression Language (EL) that has been delivered as part of the JavaServer Pages (JSP) 2.1 specification.

      On our end this is currently causing some problems, since we rely heavily on JSTL 1.2 within a blossom module and the current 1.1.2 version included will throw an error when using <c:foreach> functionality. There shouldn't be any side-effects, as the 1.2 release was entirely backward compatible and there haven't been many reports since.

      Would it be possible to update the POM.xml?
