taglib questions - 2.3.0

[Uwe Dippel]

Thanks a bunch!
But I don't have any development environment (any more), and that box used
is just a former thin client.
I don't want to make that file public, but if there was any dropbox to
where I could upload it, I would gladly do so. That might simplify some
eventually necessary debug and testing processes?

Kind regards,

Uwe
