 <title>Proposal for Jexl Package</title>
 </head>
 <body bgcolor="white">

 <div align="center">
 <h1>Proposal for <em>Jexl</em> Package</h1>
 </div>

 <h3>(0) Rationale</h3>

 <p>The <em>Jexl</em> package implements a simple expression language for
 accessing Java objects.
 </p>

 <h3>(1) Scope of the Package</h3>
 <p>
    The package will create and maintain a number of classes for
    implementing a simple expression language and processing engine,
    and to be distributed under the ASF license.
 </p>

 <h3>(1.5) Interaction With Other Packages</h3>

 <p><em>Jexl</em> relies  on standard JDK 1.2 (or later) APIs for
 production deployment. </p>

 <p>
 <i>Jexl</i> utilizes the JUnit unit testing framework for developing and
 executing unit tests, but this is of interest only to developers of the
 component.
 </p>

 <p>
 <i>Jexl</i> also depends on Jakarta Velocity, Commons Logging, dom4j
 and Velocity DVSL for documentation rendering.
 </p>

 <h3>(2) Initial Source of the Package</h3>

 <p>
    The code base is new and uses ideas from Jakarta Velocity.
 </p>

 <p>The proposed package name for the new component is
 <code>org.apache.commons.jexl</code>.</p>


 <h3>(3)  Required Jakarta-Commons Resources</h3>

 <ul>
 <li>CVS Repository - New directory <code>jexl</code> in the
     <code>jakarta-commons</code> CVS repository.  All initial committers
     are already committers on <code>jakarta-commons</code>, so no
     additional user setups are required.</li>
 <li>Mailing List - Discussions will take place on the general
     <em>jakarta-commons@jakarta.apache.org</em> mailing list.  To help
     list subscribers identify messages of interest, it is suggested that
     the message subject of messages about this component be prefixed with
     [Jexl].  Strongly suggested.</li>
 <li>Bugzilla - New component "Jexl" under the "Commons" product
     category, with appropriate version identifiers as needed.</li>
 <li>Jyve FAQ - New category "commons-jexl" (when available). </li>
 </ul>


 <h3>(4) Initial Committers</h3>
