Hi Christian,

I know the issue with the forEach. There are many aspects to notice with
the interation stuff.

I've written a sample for tobago 1.0.x which works with the c:forEach
from the JSTL.
But this not works with Facelets and also not with JSP-Tag-Files
(because scriptlets are not allowed).

I think we will find a solution for Tobago 1.1, but I can't promise it
in the moment.

An other aproach might be using a binding to a UIPanel, an building the
components with Java-Code.
That is not nice and has some pitfalls, but may a solution for you.

Hope that helps

Udo
