Dear classpathx developers,

I recieved the following feedback regarding this change:

How difficult would it be to have upstream make a new release?  It looks
like we're now using an arbitrary revision of their source code, instead
of a release.  In general, I think it's better to use a release if we
can, since that implies the code has been more thoroughly tested etc.

Would you mind creating a new release with this fix?

I released a new minor version which you can get from:

https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/classpathx/servletapi/servletapi-3.0.1.tar.gz

Dear classpathx developers,

I discovered, that classpathx servletapi 3.0 does not compile with java8.
The problem is that java8 added a method to the Map interface:
boolean remove(Object,Object), which conflicts with
Object remove(Object,Object) method in:
source/javax/servlet/jsp/el/ImplicitObjectELResolver.java;
ImplicitObjectELResolver::ScopeMap::remove

how should we fix this problem?

It was a typo in the method signature. I've fixed it now.

Thank you very much!
