  <%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f" %> 
   <f:loadBundle basename="org.sakaiproject.tool.tasklist.bundle.Messages" var="msgs"/>
   
  <f:view>
  	<sakai:view_container title="Task List Tool">
  		<sakai:view_content>
  			<h:form id="tasks">
  			 	<sakai:view_title value="#{msgs.task_list_title}"/>
  			 	<h:outputText value="Hello, #{TaskListBean.currentUserDisplayName}"/>
  			 </h:form>
    		</sakai:view_content>	
  	</sakai:view_container>
  </f:view>
