JFTR, I know two things named "JSTL" :

- javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.* (JavaServer Pages Standard Tag Library)
  - http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/jstl/jstl/1.1.2
  - Homepage: http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/jstl/

- org.apache.taglibs.standard.* (Apache Standard Taglib)
  - http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/taglibs/standard/1.0.6
  - Homepage: http://tomcat.apache.org/taglibs/index.html
  FAFIK, this is the implementation that's provided by
glassfish-appserv-jstl.jar


Cheers,
