the javax.el APIs are already available separately in the Maven
repository at
https://maven-repository.dev.java.net/nonav/repository/javax.el/
The separation from the JSP APIs was done as a result of this JSR 245
Maintenance
Review:
http://jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/maintenance/jsr245/245-MR1.html
which turned the EL into a self-contained specification.
