JSTL and license

J

Jon Rasmussen

I am using the c and fmt taglibs of Jakarta JSTL 1.0.5, by adding
jstl.jar and standard.jar to by /lib.

The jstl.jar contains this information in the manifest file:

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.5.3
Created-By: 1.4.2-b28 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
Specification-Title: JavaServer Pages Standard Tag Library (JSTL)
Specification-Version: 1.0
Implementation-Title: JavaServer Pages Standard Tag Library API Refere
nce Implementation
Implementation-Version: 1.0.5
Implementation-Vendor: Sun Microsystems, Inc.
Implementation-Vendor-Id: com.sun
Extension-Name: javax.servlet.jsp.jstl


The manifest in standard.jar contains:

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.5.3
Created-By: 1.4.2-b28 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
Specification-Title: JavaServer Pages Standard Tag Library (JSTL)
Specification-Version: 1.0
Implementation-Title: jakarta-taglibs 'standard': an implementation of
JSTL
Implementation-Version: 1.0.5
Implementation-Vendor: Apache Software Foundation
Implementation-Vendor-Id: org.apache
Extension-Name: org.apache.taglibs.standard


I want to use the taglibs in commercial software. I am not sure about
the implications regarding the use of jstl.jar as this seems to be a
Sun component as oppose to Jakarta component.

Can I use both these components and only refer to the Jakarta license
agreement?

Thanks,

Jon Rasmussen
