This is one of a the few questions that could be asked on either list. As a general rule, if you are unsure you should use the users mailing list. > I have implemented my own EL based on the EL API.

If you want to understand the reason for a change, then the first place you should look is the change history for the files in question. The ASF provides a web based interface to this at [1]. The organisation of Tomcat's part of the tree is described in [2]. The history you need to read is [3] which will lead you to [4] and the Expression Language 2.2 specification sections 2.14.7 and 2.15.7 all of which will explain why the change was made.
